Recently it has come to my attention that in morty, and maybe later, do_unpack 
for git does not use the downloads directory, and attempts to contact the git 
server.

This is unfortunate, as we often do bitbake -c fetchall and give tarballs of 
our workspace to customers, thinking it would save something, but it appears 
the savings are limited, and now I have a customer complaint about this, since 
I have one recipe that uses a private repository.

What is the logic of not using the downloads directory for the source of the 
unpack?

I recently fixed a recipe by writing an unpack that does not use networking and 
does a clone of the downloads directory to get around this.  Why is this not 
done by openembedded-core?

Thanks.
