I currently try to create a kernel and rootfs image based on yocto 1.3.
I cloned the poky git repository and switched to danny branch.

For some reason during the bitbake run for creating the image the branch of my local git repository is always switched to master, which of course won't match with the other layers I checked out for danny.

Currently I do the following:

#!/bin/bash

if [ ! -e poky ]; then
  git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky.git
  cd poky
  git checkout -b danny remotes/origin/danny
  cd ..
fi
if [ ! -e poky/meta-ti ]; then
  git clone -b danny git://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-ti poky/meta-ti
fi

After the checkout I copy some configuration files to the build/conf directory within the poky directory (bblayers.conf, local.conf) and an additional layer for our specific hardware module.

When I change to the build directory and start building the image using bitbake, there seems to be a git call somewhere in the recipes that switches the branch of the poky git checkout back to master. Of course that results in a total misbehaviour of the build process, as the underlaying recipes changes during the build.

Can someone explain that behaviour? Is that a bug or is there something I'm doing wrong.

Kind regards,
    Volker
