Hi all,

I'm trying to mirror the linaro-android repository but I have some problems about the replicaisland repository.

To mirror, I have init the directory : repo init -u git://android.git.linaro.org/platform/manifest.git --mirror

And sync : repo sync -j1

I tried to git clone directly replicaisland :

$ git clone git://android.git.linaro.org/platform/external/replicaisland Cloning into replicaisland... fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

Someone can confirm this problem please ?

Thanks for your patience while we worked on other urgent issues here. There're two notes I have regarding that issue:

1. I find it amusing that Google added an open source game to AOSP codebase. What would that mean - new devices would ship with Replica Island included? ;-). In either case, we fetch new projects from AOSP in manual manner, so thanks for the notice, platform/external/replicaisland is mirrored now.

2. Linaro Android tree is a proper superset of AOSP, i.e. we have intact AOSP which lives in its standard namespace (e.g. in master branch) and we have separate namespace for any Linaro changes - those are branches which start with 'linaro'. So, when you do

repo init -u git://android.git.linaro.org/platform/manifest.git --mirror

you essentially mirror AOSP without our changes (because you use default.xml from the master branch). To mirror Linaro tree, you need to use for example "-b linaro_android_4.0.3" (the latest branch we're working on). You may also want to check what manifest you want to mirror, we have per-board manifests which include board-specific kernels and support components, you can see what's available in gitweb:

http://android.git.linaro.org/gitweb?p=platform/manifest.git%3Ba=tree%3Bh=re...

...

Thanks,

Thanks for the fix, it works better now :).

I just made the change about the branch of the mirror too.

Replica Island seems to be a funny games, I will test it ;).

Ah, I also forgot to elaborate why you got that error message. Now I just saw other people being confused by the same, so I guess I should. That's just git/git-daemon's unfriendly way to say "repository not found". That's not fault at our servers, it's just how git, the most popular version control system in the world, works, for example:

$ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git-loves-to-confuse-people.git Initialized empty Git repository in /home/pfalcon/tmp/git-loves-to-confuse-people/.git/ fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
