Hi,
      Even though I specify a specific value for SRCREV, as follows, SRCPV is 
always set to the latest commit it. The generated package folder gets the 
latest commit id appended because of SRCPV. So what should I do, append SRCREV 
or SRCPV for recipes that fetch from a git repository?

For example, for the linux-xilinx_git.bb recipe, I have the following

SRCREV = "a5556fb251253ccb674bd22d9703c37f6f8807a8"

SRC_URI = "git://git.xilinx.com/linux-xlnx.git;protocol=git;branch=${KBRANCH} \
           file://defconfig"

LINUX_VERSION = "2.6.37"

PR = "r17"
PV = "${LINUX_VERSION}+git${SRCPV}"
      
NOTE: package 
linux-xilinx-2.6.37+git1+ed63a4d76efadcb68f5776e4244766ffea226cc4-r17: task 
do_fetch: Started

The package folder name that gets generated is as follows (SRCPV). I notice 
that nearly all the recipes that fetch from git use SRCPV. In my specific case, 
should I be using SRCREV instead? I would like to know when to use SRCPV and 
SRCREV, while working with recipes that fetch from git repositories.

Best regards,

Elvis Dowson
