[yocto] fetcher from gitpod

[Robert Berger]

Hi,

I would like to fetch some get repos (currently u-boot and kernel) from
a local git caching server[1]. This means if something changed on
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git
since the last invocations it updates the changes, if nothing changed it
provides the repo locally.

After setting up the right ssh keys not to ask for a password it works
like this:

git clone gp at gitpod:linux-stable.git
Cloning into 'linux-stable'...
fetching from
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git
remote: Counting objects: 3572381, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (574164/574164), done.
Receiving objects: 100% (3572381/3572381), 752.89 MiB | 11.53 MiB/s, done.
remote: Total 3572381 (delta 3008721), reused 3531934 (delta 2968274)
Resolving deltas: 100% (3008721/3008721), done.

Should this somehow already work with existing fetchers, or do I need to
hack together my own fetcher?

Regards,

Robert
