If the build environment is setup using `repo`, then poky/.git/object
is a symbolic link rather than a directory. To clone such repositories,
the source path must be prefixed with "file://". This avoids the
following error:

  fatal: failed to start iterator over '.../poky/.git/objects': Not a directory
