How can I use a Git repo in a build recipe?

Asked by Zaz Brown

I have a build recipe here: https://code.launchpad.net/~zazbrown/+recipe/tmsu-experimental-0

I need to replace the go-sqlite3 Bazaar repo with this Git one: https://code.launchpad.net/~zazbrown/tmsu/+git/tmsu/+ref/sqlite3

I've read that this is possible, but can't find out how anywhere.

All the components of a recipe have to use the same system at the moment (bzr-builder doesn't support pulling in git repositories, and git-build-recipe doesn't support pulling in bzr branches), so you'll have to convert everything in that recipe or nothing. https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/SourceBuilds/Recipes should document the rest of it.

Thanks a lot! I'll give that a go.
