Greetings everyone,

I have a dummy question regarding the file://DIRECTORY/ in recipe usage, we are 
using this mechanism to directly point at a source repository with potentially 
lots of subfolders, etc. Does bitbake track file://DIRECTORY ( file://DIRECTORY 
) tracks all contents accordingly (i.e something will recursively walk through 
this directory and checksum each file, then arrive at a final combined 
checksum?) and if we happen to repo-sync or git-pull to pull new changes in 
DIRECTORY/, Yocto will be able to detect any changes in this directory and 
automatically rebuild this recipe.

I was getting mixed answers from a few sources, some said this can work, some 
said it works sometimes but not always. So I would like to get a definitive 
answer from Yocto forum.

Thanks,
Mike
