Getting the source

Making required directories

Obtaining the repo binary

Adding repo binary to your path

Giving the repo binary proper permissions

Initializing an empty repo

Syncing the repo

Alright, so now we’re getting there. I have outlined the basics of what we’re about to do and broke them down as I know them. This is all pretty much going to be copy/paste so it’ll be fairly difficult to screw this up :)

Make directory for the repo binary

mkdir ~/bin

Add directory for the repo binary to its path

PATH=~/bin:$PATH

Downloading repo binary and placing it in the proper directory

curl http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/bin/repo

Giving the repo binary the proper permissions

chmod a+x ~/bin/repo

To initialize your local repository, use a command like this:

repo init -u https://github.com/Amsal1/android_manifest.git -b twelve

Then to sync up:

repo sync -c -j$(nproc --all) --force-sync --no-clone-bundle --no-tags

Compilation of Cherish OS:

From root directory of Project, perform following commands in terminal

. build/envsetup.sh brunch device-codename
