I'm looking for some best practices ideas as it relates to using ptxdist to build a complete system that pulls from various git repos.

I have a clone Linux git repo that has local commits specific to our embedded hardware.
I build an initramfs filesystem with ptxdist that gets embedded within the Linux kernel image.

I build a rootfs with ptxdist for the real rootfs

I also have a couple of libs and apps that have their own git repos as well that I'm getting ptxdist to build as well.

I'm now at the point where I now need to make this available to other developers and also get setup for a build bot to build (bamboo).

My initial thought is to create a git repo that holds the ptxconfig files and local rules/, and then configure the rules to somehow get the git repos by tag for building (as it seems that there is some sort of support for this in scripts/lib/ptxd_make_get.sh)... but I don't quite understand how to integrate this in my rules/*.make file.

Perhaps there is a better way of doing this. I'd be interested to hear what others are doing in this regard.

Thanks,
Jon
