Hi,

There is a an experimental feature of groups added in manifest by JBQ to reduce the downloads when we clone . The details are here: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/android-building/Zf1oirfV_v0/1VSGkFickc0J

The current issue is repo manifest -r -o seems to be broken with this new group feature due to which I am not able to build AOSP galaxy nexus master build:
https://android-build.linaro.org/builds/~vishalbhoj/nexus-asop/

I have seen the groups when doing repo manifest -r -o but never had any problems with the groups except that they made the manifests hard to read.

What kind of problem does it cause for the nexus builds?

Fow now I will work out of android build from the branch android-4.1.1_r6 .

On the other note, this feature should allow us to download kernel and u-boot selectively depending on the target which can allow us to get to a single manifest . I guess we should put invest some time in it.

Maybe we should move some Linaro additions to a separate group. Some of them are not really necessary to build. I ignore some of them when I pull code into ST-Ericsson to avoid some administrative work. :)

Regards,
Vishal
