Hi, I need to use git to obtain sources of a package. I want to tell git-r3 "${PV}" and it should do the proper checkout based on a version tag: https://github.com/broadinstitute/picard/tree/2.17.11 The manual page https://devmanual.gentoo.org/eclass-reference/git-r3.eclass/index.html is not really helpful in this regard, probably it is not possible. Anyway, I tried and received: ... EGIT_REPO_URI="https://github.com/broadinstitute/picard.git" EGIT_BRANCH="${PV}" # building outside of git is not possible, # see https://github.com/broadinstitute/picard/issues/605 ... >>> Emerging (1 of 1) sci-biology/picard-2.17.11::science * Using: oracle-jdk-bin-1.8 >>> Unpacking source... * Fetching https://github.com/broadinstitute/picard.git ... git fetch https://github.com/broadinstitute/picard.git +refs/heads/2.17.11:refs/heads/2.17.11 fatal: Couldn't find remote ref refs/heads/2.17.11 * ERROR: sci-biology/picard-2.17.11::science failed (unpack phase): * Unable to fetch from any of EGIT_REPO_URI * * Call stack: * ebuild.sh, line 124: Called src_unpack * environment, line 4353: Called git-r3_src_unpack * environment, line 2138: Called git-r3_src_fetch * environment, line 2132: Called git-r3_fetch * environment, line 2054: Called die * The specific snippet of code: * [[ -n ${success} ]] || die "Unable to fetch from any of EGIT_REPO_URI";
