Introduce a PRSERVER_UPSTREAM variable that makes the local PR server connect to an "upstream" one. This makes it possible to implement local fixes to an upstream package (revision "x", in a way that gives the local update priority (revision "x.y"). Update the calculation of the new revisions to support the case when prior revisions are not integers, but have an "x.y..." format." Set the comments in the handle_get_pr() function in serv.py for details about the calculation of the local revision. This is done by going on supporting the "history" mode that wasn't used so far (revisions can return to a previous historical value), in addition to the default "no history" mode (revisions can never decrease). Rather than storing the history mode in the database table itself (i.e. "PRMAIN_hist" and "PRMAIN_nohist"), the history mode is now passed through the client requests. As a consequence, the table name is now "PRMAIN", which is incompatible with what was generated before, but avoids confusion if we kept the "PRMAIN_nohist" name for both "history" and "no history" modes. Update the server version to "2.0.0".

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: https://www.openembedded.org/
Bitbake plain documentation can be found under the doc directory or its integrated html version at the Yocto Project website: https://docs.yoctoproject.org
Bitbake requires Python version 3.8 or newer.
Contributing
Please refer to our contributor guide here: https://docs.yoctoproject.org/contributor-guide/ for full details on how to submit changes.
As a quick guide, patches should be sent to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org The git command to do that would be:
git send-email -M -1 --to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
If you're sending a patch related to the BitBake manual, make sure you copy the Yocto Project documentation mailing list:
git send-email -M -1 --to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org --cc docs@lists.yoctoproject.org

Testing
Bitbake has a testsuite located in lib/bb/tests/ whichs aim to try and prevent regressions. You can run this with "bitbake-selftest". In particular the fetcher is well covered since it has so many corner cases. The datastore has many tests too. Testing with the testsuite is recommended before submitting patches, particularly to the fetcher and datastore. We also appreciate new test cases and may require them for more obscure issues.
To run the tests "zstd" and "git" must be installed.
The assumption is made that this testsuite is run from an initialized OpenEmbedded build
environment (i.e. source oe-init-build-env is used). If this is not the case, run the
testsuite as follows:
export PATH=$(pwd)/bin:$PATH
bin/bitbake-selftest
The testsuite can alternatively be executed using pytest, e.g. obtained from PyPI (in this case, the PATH is configured automatically):
pytest
