The current fetcher seemed to have some issues that made it difficult when trying to use the same. This patch fixes the following * Make consistent use of the path that needs to be used as oscdir * The path mentioned in os.access in download function was not same as ud.moddir which would result into invoking of fetch command instead of update command even if directory already existed * Before creating oscrc, make sure oscdir exists and create it if it does not exist * Updated the configuration to use apiurl and added a new parameter to control whether http or https needs to be used to connect to apiurl (Bitbake rev: 8ac6e09447d884e658c556388d6014279c50f202) Signed-off-by: Gunjan Gupta <viraniac@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org> (cherry picked from commit 3ec78686f3c0ea2304097b86a965f9be4b0cb879) Signed-off-by: Steve Sakoman <steve@sakoman.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
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:

Contributing
------------
Please refer to
https://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
Mailing list:
https://lists.openembedded.org/g/bitbake-devel

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.
