fddfa6fbac Adding include element into the top-level element
The documentation of the XML file format contains DTD which contains
definition of all allowed elements and attributes. The "include" element
is defined but it's not referenced from the top-level "manifest"
element.

This patch is adding the "include" element into the list of elements of
the top-level "manifest" element.

9371979628 Revert "Implementation of manifest defined githooks"
This reverts commit 38e4387f8e.

A "repo init" followed by "repo sync" is meant to be as safe as
"git clone".  In particular it should not run arbitrary code provided
by the manifest owner.

It would still be nice to have support for manifest-defined git hooks
--- they'd just need a prompt like the upload RepoHook has.  Hopefully
a later change can bring them back.

38e4387f8e Implementation of manifest defined githooks
When working within a team or corporation it is often
useful/required to use predefined git templates. This
change teaches repo to use a per-remote git hook template
structure.

The implementation is done as a continuation of the
existing projecthook functionality. The terminology is
therefore defined as projecthooks.

The downloaded projecthooks are stored in the .repo
directory as a metaproject separating them from the users
project forest.

The projecthooks are downloaded and set up when doing a
repo init and updated for each new repo init.

When downloading a mirror the projecthooks gits are
not added to the bare forest since the intention is to
ensure that the latest are used (allows for company policy
enforcement).

The projecthooks are defined in the manifest file in the
remote element as a subnode, the name refers to the
project name on the server referred to in the remote.
<remote name="myremote ..>
   <projecthook name="myprojecthookgit" revision="myrevision"/>
</remote>

The hooks found in the projecthook revision supersede
the stock hooks found in repo. This removes the need for
updating the projecthook gits for repo stock hook changes.

884a387eca Add extend-project tag to support adding groups to an existing project
Currently, if a local manifest wants to add groups to an existing
project, it must use remove-project and then re-add the project with
the new groups.  This makes the local manifest more fragile, requiring
updates to the local manifest if the original manifest changes.

Add a new extend-project tag, which supports adding groups to an
existing project.

to force the mirrored repositories to be created in folders according to

b2bd91c99b Represent git-submodule as nested projects, take 2
(Previous submission of this change broke Android buildbot due to
 incorrect regular expression for parsing git-config output.  During
 investigation, we also found that Android, which pulls Chromium, has a
 workaround for Chromium's submodules; its manifest includes Chromium's
 submodules.  This new change, in addition to fixing the regex, also
 take this type of workarounds into consideration; it adds a new
 attribute that makes repo not fetch submodules unless submodules have a
 project element defined in the manifest, or this attribute is
 overridden by a parent project element or by the default element.)

We need a representation of git-submodule in repo; otherwise repo will
not sync submodules, and leave workspace in a broken state.  Of course
this will not be a problem if all projects are owned by the owner of the
manifest file, who may simply choose not to use git-submodule in all
projects.  However, this is not possible in practice because manifest
file owner is unlikely to own all upstream projects.

As git submodules are simply git repositories, it is natural to treat
them as plain repo projects that live inside a repo project.  That is,
we could use recursively declared projects to denote the is-submodule
relation of git repositories.

The behavior of repo remains the same to projects that do not have a
sub-project within.  As for parent projects, repo fetches them and their
sub-projects as normal projects, and then checks out subprojects at the
commit specified in parent's commit object.  The sub-project is fetched
at a path relative to parent project's working directory; so the path
specified in manifest file should match that of .gitmodules file.

If a submodule is not registered in repo manifest, repo will derive its
properties from itself and its parent project, which might not always be
correct.  In such cases, the subproject is called a derived subproject.

To a user, a sub-project is merely a git-submodule; so all tips of
working with a git-submodule apply here, too.  For example, you should
not run `repo sync` in a parent repository if its submodule is dirty.

bb1b5f5f86 Allow projects to be specified as notdefault
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).

b292b98c3e Add remote alias support in manifest
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)
same_alias  ssh://git.internal.com:29418/project3 (push)

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.

2644874d9d ManifestXml: add include support
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>

79770d269e Add sync-c option to 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.

Code Review servers support queuing of requests and processes

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.

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.')

2b8db3ce3e Added feature to print a <notice> from manifest at the end of a sync.
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.

a1bfd2cd72 Add a 'smart sync' option to repo sync
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.

242b52690d Remove support for the extra <remote> definitions in manifests
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.

a490f03dc2 Correct note about local_manifest.xml capabilities
With the <remove-project> element we can remove projects, and
fully replace them with a different definition.  So this note
is out of date.

03eaf07ec6 Support <remove-project name="X"> in manifest to remove/replace X
The manifest files now permit removing a project so the user can
either keep it out of their client, or replace it with a different
project using an entirely different configuration.

70939e2f73 Add <add-remote to-project="..."> to inject additional remotes
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).

ae6e0949d1 Add <remote project-name="..."> attribute within projects
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.
