Instead of every group being in the group "default", every project
is now in the group "all". A group that should not be downloaded
by default may be added to the group "notdefault".
This allows all group names to be positive (instead of removing groups
directly in the manifest with -default) and offers a clear way of
selecting every project (--groups all).

The `alias` is an optional attribute in element `remote`. It can be
used to override attibute `name` to be set as the remote name in each
project's .git/config. Its value can be duplicated while attribute
`name` has to be unique across the manifest file. This helps each
project to be able to have same remote name which actually points
to different remote url.
It eases some automation scripts to be able to checkout/push to same
remote name but actually different remote url, like:
repo forall -c "git checkout -b work same_remote/work"
repo forall -c "git push same_remote work:work"
for example:
The manifest with 'alias' will look like:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<manifest>
<remote alias="same_alias" fetch="git://git.external1.org/" name="ext1"
review="http://review.external1.org"/>
<remote alias="same_alias" fetch="git://git.external2.org/" name="ext2"
review="http://review.external2.org"/>
<remote alias="same_alias" fetch="ssh://git.internal.com:29418" name="int"
review="http://review.internal.com"/>
<default remote="int" revision="int-branch" sync-j="2"/>
<project name="path/to/project1" path="project1" remote="ext1"/>
<project name="path/to/project2" path="project2" remote="ext2"/>
<project name="path/to/project3" path="project3"/>
...
</manifest>
In each project, use command "git remote -v"
project1:
same_alias git://git.external1.org/project1 (fetch)
same_alias git://git.external1.org/project1 (push)
project2:
same_alias git://git.external2.org/project2 (fetch)
same_alias git://git.external2.org/project2 (push)
project3:
same_alias ssh://git.internal.com:29418/project3 (fetch)

For CrOS, we have scenarios were people checkout a smaller version
of our manifest via groups, and enable individual repositories as
needed for their work. Previously this was via local_manifest
manipulation, which breaks via manifest-groups would require a
remove-project tag.
Via injecting the projects name into the projects groups, this
allows us to instead manipulate the configured groups allowing
the user to turn on/off projects as necessary.

Having the ability to include other manifests is a very practical feature
to ease the managment of manifest. It allows to divide a manifest into separate
files, and create different environment depending on what we want to release
You can have unlimited recursion of include, the manifest configs will simply be concatenated
as if it was in a single file.
command "repo manifest" will create a single manifest, and not recreate the manifest hierarchy
for example:
Our developement manifest will look like:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<manifest>
<default revision="platform/android/main" remote="intel"/>
<include name="server.xml"/> <!-- The Server configuration -->
<include name="aosp.xml" /> <!-- All the AOSP projects -->
<include name="bsp.xml" /> <!-- The BSP projects that we release in source form -->
<include name="bsp-priv.xml" /> <!-- The source of the BSP projects we release in binary form -->
</manifest>
Our release manifest will look like:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<manifest>
<default revision="platform/android/release-ext" remote="intel"/>
<include name="server.xml"/> <!-- The Server configuration -->
<include name="aosp.xml" /> <!-- All the AOSP projects -->
<include name="bsp.xml" /> <!-- The BSP projects that we release in source form -->
<include name="bsp-ext.xml" /> <!-- The PREBUILT version of the BSP projects we release in binary form -->
</manifest>
And it is also easy to create and maintain feature branch with a manifest that looks like:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<manifest>
<default revision="feature_branch_foobar" remote="intel"/>
<include name="server.xml"/> <!-- The Server configuration -->
<include name="aosp.xml" /> <!-- All the AOSP projects -->
<include name="bsp.xml" /> <!-- The BSP projects that we release in source form -->
<include name="bsp-priv.xml" /> <!-- The source of the BSP projects we release in binary form -->
</manifest>

There are use-cases when fetching all branch is impractical and
we really need to fetch only one branch/tag.
e.g. there is a large project with binaries and every update of a
binary file is put to a separate branch.
The whole project history might be too large to allow users fetch it.
Add 'sync-c' option to 'project' and 'default' tags to make it possible
to configure 'sync-c' behavior at per-project and per-manifest level.
Note that currently there is no possibility to revert boolean flag from
command line. If 'sync-c' is set in manifest then you cannot make
full fetch by providing a repo tool argument.

Every project is in group "default". "-default" does not remove
it from this project. All group names specified in the manifest
are positive names as opposed to a mix of negative and positive.
Specified groups are resolved in order. If init is supplied with
--groups="group1,-group2", the following describes the project
selection when syncing:
* all projects in "group1" will be added, and
* all projects in "group2" will be removed.

Allow the optional addition of "annotation" nodes nested under
projects. Each annotation node must have "name" and "value"
attributes. These name/value pairs will be exported into the
environment during any forall command, prefixed with "REPO__"
In addition, an optional "keep" attribute with case insensitive "true"
or "false" values can be included to determine whether the annotation
will be exported with 'repo manifest'

Allows specifying a list of groups with a -g argument to repo init.
The groups act on a group= attribute specified on projects in the
manifest.
All projects are implicitly labelled with "default" unless they are
explicitly labelled "-default".
Prefixing a group with "-" removes matching projects from the list
of projects to sync.
If any non-inverted manifest groups are specified, the default label
is ignored.

This permits manifest authors to suggest a number of parallel
fetch operations against a remote server. For example, Gerrit
Code Review servers support queuing of requests and processes
them in first-in, first-out order. Running concurrent fetches
can utilize multiple CPUs on the Gerrit server, but will also
decrease overall operation latency by having the request put
into the queue ready to execute as soon as a CPU is free.

All repo-level hooks are expected to live in a single project at the
top level of that project. The name of the hooks project is provided
in the manifest.xml. The manifest also lists which hooks are enabled
to make it obvious if a file somehow failed to sync down (or got
deleted).
Before running any hook, we will prompt the user to make sure that it
is OK. A user can deny running the hook, allow once, or allow
"forever" (until hooks change). This tries to keep with the git
spirit of not automatically running anything on the user's computer
that got synced down. Note that individual repo commands can add
always options to avoid these prompts as they see fit (see below for
the 'upload' options).
When hooks are run, they are loaded into the current interpreter (the
one running repo) and their main() function is run. This mechanism is
used (instead of using subprocess) to make it easier to expand to a
richer hook interface in the future. During loading, the
interpreter's sys.path is updated to contain the directory containing
the hooks so that hooks can be split into multiple files.
The upload command has two options that control hook behavior:
- no-verify=False, verify=False (DEFAULT):
If stdout is a tty, can prompt about running upload hooks if needed.
If user denies running hooks, the upload is cancelled. If stdout is
not a tty and we would need to prompt about upload hooks, upload is
cancelled.
- no-verify=False, verify=True:
Always run upload hooks with no prompt.
- no-verify=True, verify=False:
Never run upload hooks, but upload anyway (AKA bypass hooks).
- no-verify=True, verify=True:
Invalid
Sample bit of manifest.xml code for enabling hooks (assumes you have a
project named 'hooks' where hooks are stored):
<repo-hooks in-project="hooks" enabled-list="pre-upload" />
Sample main() function in pre-upload.py in hooks directory:
def main(project_list, **kwargs):
print ('These projects will be uploaded: %s' %
', '.join(project_list))
print ('I am being a good boy and ignoring anything in kwargs\n'
'that I don\'t understand.')
print 'I fail 50% of the time. How flaky.'
if random.random() <= .5:
raise Exception('Pre-upload hook failed. Have a nice day.')

This feature is used to convey information on a when a branch has
ceased development or if it is an experimental branch with a few
gotchas, etc.
You add it to your manifest XML by doing something like this:
<manifest>
<notice>
NOTE TO DEVELOPERS:
If you checkin code, you have to pinky-swear that it contains no bugs.
Anyone who breaks their promise will have tomatoes thrown at them in the
team meeting. Be sure to bring an extra set of clothes.
</notice>
<remote ... />
...
</manifest>
Carriage returns and indentation are relevant for the text in this tag.
This feature was requested by Anush Elangovan on the ChromiumOS team.
This option allows the user to specify a manifest server to use when
syncing. This manifest server will provide a manifest pegging each
project to a known green build. This allows developers to work on a
known good tree that is known to build and pass tests, preventing
failed builds to hamper productivity.
The manifest used is not "sticky" so as to allow subsequent
'repo sync' calls to sync to the tip of the tree.

These aren't that widely used, and actually make it difficult for
users to fully mirror a forest of repositories, and then permit
someone else to clone off that forest, rather then the original
upstream servers.

This way users can add forks they know about to an existing project
that was already declared in the primary manifest. This is mostly
useful with the Linux kernel project, where multiple forks is quite
common for the main upstream tree (e.g. Linus' tree), a platform
architecture tree (e.g. ARM) and a device specific tree (e.g. the
msm7k tree used by Android).

By setting a project-name on a remote nested within a project forks
of a project like the Linux kernel can be easily handled by fetching
all relevant forks into the same client side project under different
remote names. Developers can create branches off different remotes
using `git checkout --track -b $myname $remote/$branch` and later
`repo upload` automatically redirects to the proper fork project
in the code review server.
