Hi,

maybe Pat wants Makefile targets do-fetch and do-extract, these are-
*replacing* standard fetch and extract actions. I am using it for
fetching some branch to test from local repository:

do-fetch:
	@echo nada

do-extract:
	@git -C ${GIT_DIR} worktree add -d ${WRKSRC} ${GIT_BRANCH}

In this case, NO_CHECKSUM=YES is probably needed as well.

Similarly, instead of git, you could use cp, tar or anything you like.

Hope this helps...
