Actually the repo file is the same file under ~/bin, so that is not an
issue. I don't need more than one repo file...

But what I'm getting at is -  when I try to use the  'repo init'  on
different manifest from different directory, it should create
a .repo/ directory under the cwd. But it does not do that. Perhaps
there is something wrong here - the  way repo handles things !!!
