<title>Using an External SCM</title>
<para>
If you're working on a recipe that pulls from an external Source Code Manager (SCM), it
is possible to have the OpenEmbedded build system notice new recipe changes added to the
SCM and then build the resulting package that depends on the new recipes by using the latest
versions.
This only works for SCMs from which it is possible to get a sensible revision number for changes.
Currently, you can do this with Apache Subversion (SVN), Git, and Bazaar (BZR) repositories.
