Hi Belén,

I have read over your fine design, and I have only two comments.

1) Page 4

  The URL of the Git layer repository. The 1.7 release will
  only support Git repos.

My same concern that I have expressed before about active user layers in a file system, ones not locked into a git repo.

The "conf/bblayers.conf" file and "BBLAYERS" support paths to directories layers, why not Toaster? I am confused by this.


2) Page 8

  Git repository URL
  - It must start with 'http://', 'https://' or 'git://'. If it doesn't
  start like that, we show an error

What about local customer git repos, ones that exist on a file path? We should also support the git protocol format "file:///(path_on_local)".

- David
