[yocto] PR server question

[Gary Thomas]

I'm using a local PR server for my builds, working on my Linux
kernel.  When I run this sequence:
   $ bitbake virtual/kernel -c devshell
     ... fiddle with some kernel sources
   $ bitbake virtual/kernel -C compile; bitbake package-index
I notice that the package revision for 'kernel-image-*' goes up
by 3 on every iteration.

Not that it makes much difference (or does it?), but does this
make sense?  Why does it not just increase by 1 since I've only
actually rebuilt the package once?
