It makes sense now.

The SRCREV is dealt different because we can use SRCREV_FORMAT.

So when we use multiple Git repositories in same fetcher we can have:

SRCREV_FORMAT = "first_second"

and

SRC_URI = "git://...;name=first \
                   git://...;name=second"

and

SRCREV_first = ...
SRCREV_second = ...

So to handle the pn, we must to use:

SRCREV_pn-<recipe>

or

SRCREV_<name>-pn-<recipe>

I hope it clarifies it now.

Regards,
