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 !!! -pro On Sep 9, 8:02 am, prokash <proka...@gmail.com> wrote: > I'm trying to get the source from 3 repositories ( or 3 different > manifests): base android, openmoko, beagleboard... > > My basic understanding is the any such repositories can have (1) > added files (2) deleted files (3) modified files from the base source > tree... > > So I was trying to get them in different directories : ~/mydroid; ~/ > openmoko, ~/beagle... > > There are a few problems I'm facing, even though I got three > different repo files with different name in ~/bin directory. > > repo -help --all // silent now , no response, just returns > > repobeagle sync // tries hard then finally bail out with error > prok...@prokash-laptop:~/beagledroid$ repobeagle sync > Fetching projects: 100% (102/102), done. > Syncing work tree: 65% (65/100) fatal: reference is not a tree: > b09cf8ef31b71ef84d210e028d4300473633b469 > Syncing work tree: 100% (100/100), done. > > kernel/: leaving goldfish; does not track upstream > error: kernel/: kernel/openmoko checkout > b09cf8ef31b71ef84d210e028d4300473633b469 > > ---- What I understand from this is that my original directory ~/ > mydroid is somewhat tied to all the checkouts... > > I really don't know how all the customized ( yet open to all ) > repositories are built/configured, so I was trying to get them ( even > though it is a stupid idea to pollute the HDD) in separate > directories... > > If the configurations are just based on some config file, and if that > picks up the right set of source then I will be fine to get the > customized source in the same directory, but this part of the > semantics of repo/git is what I don't know... > > So would I be fine, if I bring down the openmoko and beagle specific > source to my ~/mydroid, and build for specific configurations ??? > > thanks for any input. > -pro --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ unsubscribe: android-kernel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com website: http://groups.google.com/group/android-kernel -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
