Should the GStreamer 1.0 _git.bb recipes be removed?
Hello,
right now, for each GStreamer 1.0 package, there is a .inc file, a _git recipe, and a versioned recipe. The _git recipes made sense when GStreamer 1.0 was first introduced, because this happened during the 1.0 -> 1.2 version change, and 1.2 brought many essential enhancements, so many people wanted to build the git version. However, these days, I don't think the git versions are in such high demand. As a result, their SRCREVs haven't been updated for a very long time.
Since this is pretty much dead, how about removing these recipes?
cheers

I was wondering this just this week and have no objection.
