Description: repository management tool built on top of git
Repo is a repository management tool that the Android developers built on top
of Git. Repo unifies the many Git repositories when necessary, does the
uploads to the Android revision control system, and automates parts of the
Android development workflow. Repo is not meant to replace Git, only to make
it easier to work with Git in the context of Android. The repo command is an
executable Python script that you can put anywhere in your path. In working
with the Android source files, you will use Repo for across-network
operations. For example, with a single Repo command you can download files
from multiple repositories into your local working directory.
.
repo is an unusual tool because it downloads all of its own Python modules
using GPG-signed git tags, and stores those files as part of the project that
it is working with. So this package just provides the wrapper script, which
provides the GPG signing keys for verifying that the correct Python code was
downloaded.
