repo bootstraps itself by syncing the repo guts from google, google signs the repo guts so that people know that they're using a trusted source.

I think there's an env var to disable the auto-update of repo; we could set it in our instructions or in build wrappers, and/or we could patch repo to update itself from linaro.org instead.
