Before this fix it is assumed that the removal of the remote can only fail because there is not remote to remove. This is a false assumption. Example error which would be ignored: git -c core.fsyncobjectfiles=0 remote rm origin failed with exit code 1, output: Note: A branch outside the refs/remotes/ hierarchy was not removed; to delete it, use: git branch -d master error: could not lock config file config error: Could not remove config section 'remote.origin' Due to the masking of this error a stranger error will be presented to the user, because this time we do not mask the exception: git -c core.fsyncobjectfiles=0 remote add --mirror=fetch origin https://github.com/ptsneves/tl-wn722.git failed with exit code 128, output: fatal: remote origin already exists. The most likely reason that the remote cannot be removed nor modified is that the DL_DIR/git2 does not have permissions compatible with the user running bitbake.

Bitbake
BitBake is a generic task execution engine that allows shell and Python tasks to be run efficiently and in parallel while working within complex inter-task dependency constraints. One of BitBake's main users, OpenEmbedded, takes this core and builds embedded Linux software stacks using a task-oriented approach.
For information about Bitbake, see the OpenEmbedded website: http://www.openembedded.org/
Bitbake plain documentation can be found under the doc directory or its integrated html version at the Yocto Project website: http://yoctoproject.org/documentation
Contributing
Please refer to http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded for guidelines on how to submit patches, just note that the latter documentation is intended for OpenEmbedded (and its core) not bitbake patches (bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org) but in general main guidelines apply. Once the commit(s) have been created, the way to send the patch is through git-send-email. For example, to send the last commit (HEAD) on current branch, type:
git send-email -M -1 --to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
