Subject: support/download: fetch all refs on full git clone
X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f8b8251a921a7fa4e05b545e503cfc4e736d1d0d;p=buildroot.git

support/download: fetch all refs on full git clone

When specifying BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_REPO_VERSION, a user may want to
specify the SHA of a reference different than a branch or tag.

For instance, Gerrit stores the patchsets under refs/changes/xx/xxx, and
Github stores the pull requests under refs/pull/xxx/head.

When cloning a repository with --bare, you don't fetch these references.
This patch uses --mirror for a full clone, in order to give the user
access to all references of the Git repository.
