Downloading the Code

Maru OS uses Repo, just like AOSP, to manage all the project code. Repo makes it easy to work on projects with several Git repositories.

Set up Repo

Before you can install the Repo client, ensure you have a /bin folder in your PATH. The AOSP docs suggest creating this folder in your home directory:

$ mkdir ~/bin
$ PATH=~/bin:$PATH

Then download the repo client:

$ curl https://storage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/bin/repo
$ chmod a+x ~/bin/repo

Great, you've got Repo!

Sync the code

If you don't already have a workspace ready, create and enter a workspace directory where you'll store the project code:

$ mkdir $WORKSPACE
$ cd $WORKSPACE

...and sync the code into your workspace:

$ repo init -u https://github.com/maruos/manifest -b maru-0.7
$ repo sync

Tip: repo sync can take a LONG time. Your first sync will download 50GB+ of sources!
