If we use a tag here then bitbake has to connect to the repository to find
out the corresponding revision (so it can expand SRCPV which is part of PV,
which amongst other things is needed to determine whether or not the
package has to be rebuilt.) This occurs at parse time; on machines behind a
firewall or with no network access this can be a problem.
We wish to avoid unnecessary network accesses and network access in our
default configuration during parse time is even worse. Substituting the
git revision corresponding to the tag prevents bitbake from having to
contact the remote repository in order to expand PV.

In order to facilitate reuse of the oe-core u-boot recipe, there needs to be
some assurance that the oe-core version won't change without a clear indicator
to people extending it.
By renaming the recipe to include its version string instead of "git", BSP
layers can extend a specific base version of u-boot, ie.
u-boot_2011.03.bbappend. When 2011.06 becomes available, we can create that file
without instantly breaking all the BSPs depending on oe-core version of the
recipe.
As a matter of policy I would recommend we not carry more than 2 versioned
u-boot recipess at any given time. This will provide BSP layers time to migrate
to the newer version, without cluttering oe-core with numerous stale versions of
u-boot. We may decide later to resurrect u-boot_git.bb as an AUTOREV recipe to
faciliate upstream development on u-boot in the oe environment.
