@@ -439,10 +439,12 @@ This fetcher supports the following parameters:
- *"rev":* The revision to use for the checkout. If :term:`SRCREV` is also set,
this parameter must match its value.
- *"tag":* Specifies a tag to use for the checkout. To correctly
resolve tags, BitBake must access the network. For that reason, tags
are often not used. As far as Git is concerned, the "tag" parameter
behaves effectively the same as the "rev" parameter.
- *"tag":* Specifies a tag to use when fetching. To correctly resolve
tags, BitBake must access the network. If a ``rev`` parameter or
:term:`SRCREV` is also specified, network access is not necessary to resolve
the tag and instead, it is verified that they both resolve to the same commit
SHA at unpack time. The ``tag`` parameter is optional, but strongly
recommended if the checked out revision is a tag.
- *"subpath":* Limits the checkout to a specific subpath of the tree.
By default, the whole tree is checked out.
