Subject: ref-manual: Applied Paul Eggleton's buildhistory patch 2 of 5.

Additional information added to the end of the
"Build History Package Information" section."

Buildhistory now collects information on SRCREV values for recipes
fetched from a version control system e.g. Git; additionally a
buildhistory-collect-srcrevs tool is provided to gather this and
convert it to a format suitable for inclusion in global configuration.
Add information on these new features to the appropriate section.

+                Finally, for those recipes that are fetched from a version control
+                system (such as Git) there is a file that lists the source revision(s)
+                specified in the recipe and the actual revision used when building
+                (which may be different when <filename>SRCREV</filename> is set to
+                <filename>${AUTOREV}</filename> for example). Here is an example
+                of one of these files:
+                <filename>buildhistory/packages/emenlow-poky-linux/linux-yocto/latest_srcrev</filename>):
+                <literallayout class='monospaced'>
+     # SRCREV_machine = "b5c37fe6e24eec194bb29d22fdd55d73bcc709bf"
+     SRCREV_machine = "b5c37fe6e24eec194bb29d22fdd55d73bcc709bf"
+     # SRCREV_emgd = "caea08c988e0f41103bbe18eafca20348f95da02"

+                </literallayout>
+                You can use the <filename>buildhistory-collect-srcrevs</filename>
+                command to collect the stored <filename>SRCREV</filename> values
+                from build history and report them in a format suitable for use in
+                global configuration (for example, local.conf or a distro include
+                file) to override floating AUTOREV values to a fixed set of revisions.
+                Here is some example output from this command:
+                <literallayout class='monospaced'>
+     # emenlow-poky-linux

+                command:

+                    <listitem><para>By default only values where the SRCREV was
+                        not hardcoded (usually when AUTOREV was used) are reported
+                        - use the <filename>-a</filename> option to see all SRCREV
+                        values.</para></listitem>
+                    <listitem><para>The output statements may not have any effect
+                        in the face of overrides applied elsewhere in the build system

+                        <filename>forcevariable</filename> override to each output line
+                        if you need to work around this.</para></listitem>
