i'm pretty much finished now
there might be a few more changes later,
like stricter error handling, more verbose
error messages, etc
right now, it relies on -e to kill lbmk
on error, and uses the exit command
another planned change it to support
other upstreams besides coreboot.org,
such as the dasharo codebase
the latter is *why* i refactored this
download script, for asus kgped-d16
to my knowledge, this feature has never been used,
but lbmk permits resources/coreboot/boardname/extra.sh
to execute, as provided by the maintainer, with working
directory set to: coreboot/boardname
this could be used to extend lbmk in a number of ways
for example, it could be used to patch 3rdparty/
it could also be used to break coreboot in creative
and novel ways. hint hint.
the "board" variable in prepare_new_coreboot_tree()
is also declared in fetch_coreboot_trees
for the one in prepare_new_coreboot_tree, it's passed
as an argument to the function, so give it a new name
i learned that some shells have a global scope, when
using variables of the same name between functions
this should download all trees:
./download coreboot
without this patch, it doesn't
with this patch, it works
i overlooked this during earlier
refactoring. auditing revealed it.
top-down order, and *still* rfc 3676 compliant
i finished simplifying the logic, and
i split everything into smaller functions
there is still more more polishing to do
final touches will be done in new revisions
coreboot trees/patching is still handled
specifically by "./download coreboot"
command now available in lbmk:
./gitclone coreboot
this *only* creates the directory at:
coreboot/coreboot
this directory is never used in builds.
it is only used by download/coreboot to
create patched trees for each mainboard
Downloading coreboot and U-Boot takes quite the disk space and bandwith.
We don't need to download entire repos, only the revisions that we are
interested in.
Use the --depth=1 option to only download the files we need. Since the
initial clones may not have our target revision, always try to fetch it.

Keeping the git repositories is useful while development, e.g. to avoid
git cloning repositories over and over again while debugging download
scripts. Setting the NODELETE environment variable keeps the blobs and
the git repositories. Allow a slightly finer-tuned version of this where
we can keep only the git-related files by setting the variable to "git".

When running ./download all, we have the following error:
resources/scripts/download/coreboot: Line 52: $1 is not set.
The ./download all command was broken by the following commit:
2bb805e2e0 (download: Add --help in the
individual download scripts).

This doesn't change the existing usage of the scripts:
- For the Coreboot script, before this change, all arguments that were
passed were considered as board to download the Coreboot source code
for.
Here we added the '--help' and '--list-boards' arguments, so it
should not be an issue as it is extremely unlikely that a board
would be called '--help' or '--list-boards'.
- All the other scripts don't use any arguments so passing --help
should not conflict with the existing usage.

this is forked from the "libre" branch in osboot, which is itself a libre,
deblobbed fork of osboot, a blobbed up fork of libreboot
libreboot needed to be purged clean. this is the new libreboot development
repository. the old one has been abandoned
