This is the initial implementation of the improvement for packagehistory.bbclass. This bbclass is intended to be used to help track changes to package output over time and hopefully catch unusual situations such as a package doubling in size. You can try it out by adding INHERIT += "packagehistory" to your local.conf, building something that performs do_package and then looking in TMPDIR/pkghistory to view the output.
I've tried to keep it fairly simple - i.e. no new storage backend, just plain files, although I anticipate most people using it will want to store the output in a git repository. There's potential for recording more per-recipe / per-package information, if there are suggestions I'd be keen to hear them. Please review the following changes for suitability for inclusion. If you have any objections or suggestions for improvement, please respond to the patches. If you agree with the changes, please provide your Acked-by.
