FAQ

When I try to sync with repo I get fetch errors.

This can occur when you are running an old version of repo or if an external issue causes the sync to fail (such as a timeout).

To resolve this make sure you have the latest version of repo.

curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo
chmod a+x ~/bin/repo

Than from your working directory remove the old repo binaries and manifest.

rm -rf .repo/repo
rm -rf .repo/manifests .repo/manifests.git .repo/manifest.xml

After that reinitialize the repo according to the directions included with your manifest of choice.

How can I cancel a failed sync or build that isn't exiting on it's own?

More common with syncing than building but it is relatively possible, in most cases unless the machine is entirely locked up.

Try holding down 'ctrl' and 'z'
