Except that the bitbake fetch code recently changed and if the SRCREV is not
on the master branch, it will fail like this:
   ERROR: Fetcher failure: Unable to find revision f89bc066db0569008418fac1a0408a9a57f2232f in branch master even from upstream
   ERROR: Function failed: Fetcher failure for URL: 'git://github.com/boundarydevices/u-boot-imx6.git'. Unable to fetch URL from any source.
   ERROR: Logfile of failure stored in: /local/imx6_new/tmp/work/sabrelite-amltd-linux-gnueabi/u-boot-script-boundary/v2013.01+gitAUTOINC+f89bc066db-r0/temp/log.do_fetch.25222
   ERROR: Task 144 (/local/poky-multi/meta-fsl-arm-extra/recipes-bsp/u-boot/u-boot-script-boundary_git.bb, do_fetch) failed with exit code '1'

I made the branch name a variable as not everyone using a given recipe
may be using the same revision/branch, e.g. I have some targets that use
linux-boundary that are still on boundary-imx_3.0.35_4.0.0
