1 year ago For now, the work around is to use a script like this from a git pre-commit hook:
#!/usr/bin/env python3
import sys
import pathlib
from ruamel.yaml import YAML
path = pathlib.Path("project.refs")
yaml = YAML()
refs = yaml.load(path)
refs["projects"]["carbonOS"] = dict(sorted(refs["projects"]["carbonOS"].items()))
yaml.dump(refs, path)However, this isn't ideal because:
1) pre-commit hooks aren't necessarily going to be installed
2) pre-commit hooks mutate commits in potentially unpredictable ways, which can easily mess with things like rebases, git add -p, etc.

project.refs is currently unsorted. This makes checking the file into git quite cumbersome. It would be nice if buildstream could sort the keys by element name before writing the
project.refsfile, so that we could get cleaner git diffs out of an invocation ofbst source track **.bst
