SRCREV is only used when you are fetching from some remote version control 
system (git, etc.). If it's complaining about it not being present then there 
must be some reference to a VCS in your SRC_URI. You can check this by running 
the following (replacing targetname as appropriate):

bitbake -e targetname | grep ^SRC_URI
