Thanks!

  I'll give Tim a bit more time so I can work on the auto logic that either
updated and existing copy of the tree and then uses cp -a to get the source to
the build dir, if nothing currently existing, then git clone it :)  Sort of like
this:

## GIT repository variables and location
_gitlocal="/home/david/tde/tde/main"
_gitname="${pkgname#*-}"
_gitdir="${_gitlocal}/dependencies/${_gitname}"
_giturl="$url"

_prefix="/opt/tqt3"

build() {

  cd ${srcdir}

  ## update or clone tqt3 from GIT
  msg "Checking for existing GIT source: $_gitname"
  if [ -d $_gitname ] ; then
    msg "Using existing source in: ${srcdir}/${_gitname}"
  else
    if [ -d /home/david/tde/tde/main/dependencies/ ] ; then
#     if [ -d $_gitdir ] ; then
      msg "Updating local tree: $_gitdir"
      cd $_gitdir && {
	git pull
	git submodule init
	git submodule update --recursive
	git submodule foreach --recursive "git checkout master"
	git submodule foreach --recursive "git pull"
      }
      cd ${srcdir} && cp -a "$_gitdir" .
      msg "The local files are updated."
    else
      msg "Connecting to GIT server...."
      msg "Cloning new source from: $url"
#       git clone --depth 1 $_giturl
      git clone $_giturl
    fi
    msg "GIT checkout done or server timeout"
  fi
