oelint.vars.autorev

severity: warning

Example

In my-recipe_1.0.bb

SRCREV = "${AUTOREV}"

Why is this bad?

AUTOREV will pull always the latest commit, breaking reproducible builds in general. The usage is discouraged in general other than for local experiments.

Ways to fix it

Use a fixed revision

SRCREV = "e5fa44f2b31c1fb553b6021e7360d07d5d91ff5e"
