Locally, as developer you always have a local branch where you can cherry-pick changes. With git submodules and repo tooling, you should use a local or project specific clone of poky. Or move all updates and changes to your own layers, but I find this doesn't scale and instead branching in git works better. Cheers, -Mikko
