* +LIBFOO_VERSION+, mandatory, must contain the version of the
package. Note that if +HOST_LIBFOO_VERSION+ doesn't exist, it is
assumed to be the same as +LIBFOO_VERSION+. It can also be a
- revision number, branch or tag for packages that are fetched
- directly from their revision control system. +
- Examples: +
- +LIBFOO_VERSION = 0.1.2+ +
- +LIBFOO_VERSION = cb9d6aa9429e838f0e54faa3d455bcbab5eef057+ +
- +LIBFOO_VERSION = stable+
+ revision number or a tag for packages that are fetched directly
+ from their version control system. Do not use a branch name as
+ version; it does not work. Examples:
+ ** a version for a release tarball: +LIBFOO_VERSION = 0.1.2+
+ ** a sha1 for a git tree: +LIBFOO_VERSION = cb9d6aa9429e838f0e54faa3d455bcbab5eef057+
+ ** a tag for a git tree +LIBFOO_VERSION = v0.1.2+
* +LIBFOO_SOURCE+ may contain the name of the tarball of the package,
which Buildroot will use to download the tarball from
