Of course the revision from two months back has to be available in the repo. It doesn't really matter whether it's on master because the code just worked or whether it's a RTEMS specific branch because adaptions have been necessary.

You "it doesn't really matter" worries me a little bit. I'm not sure this functionality is even supported hence my question above if you have tested it yourself.

Yes, I use that regularly. For an (old) example, take a look at a branch in the repo that I use to test GSoC work:

   https://gitlab.com/c-mauderer/rtems-bbb/-/tree/6

I have a libs/rtems-libbsd submodule there that uses the revision c9474c0b which is on a cm/20200726_fix branch in my clone of rtems-libbsd. In the .gitmodules the branch is still set to "master". Despite that, git can find thre right commit ID.

Cool! So it didn't work for me due to (i) my git bug or (ii) my git doesn't supporting whatever or simply due to (iii) me making silly mistake somewhere.

Will need to recheck this. Thanks for the info!

Karel
