182Git fetcher: support for multiple revisions per URL removed
183~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
184
185The support for having multiple Git revisions per URL in :term:`SRC_URI` was
186removed from BitBake, which means the following syntax is not supported
187anymore::
188
189 SRC_URI = "git://some.host/somepath;branch=branchX,branchY;name=nameX,nameY"
190 SRCREV_nameX = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
191 SRCREV_nameY = "yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy"
192
193This was rarely used in the core repositories, and this removal simplifies the
194code logic in several places.

196Git fetcher: Branch parameter now required in :term:`SRC_URI`
197~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
198
199The ``branch`` parameter is now required when specifying a Git repository in
200:term:`SRC_URI`, for example::
201
202 SRC_URI = "git://some.host/somepath;branch=branchX"
203
204A missing ``branch`` parameter used to produce a warning, and will now produce
205an error.
