Does the git add have to be done as specified above? I made changes and inside the directory where the changes occured I just did a git add -am "my message", but it didn't save my changes when I rebuilt the image. Also, the devtool finish seems really horky. devtool modify <recipe> checks out the package, but why is it necessary to explicitly specify a layer when you finish? It's hard enough knowing what layer a recipe is coming from in the first place, with all the inheritance, layer priorities, and bbappends. D'oh! In some ways seems needlessly complex: ie flexibility at the expense of elegance.
