Currently we have the behavior: * `repo`: Equivalent to `repo help` -- only shows common subcommands (with short description), and then exits 0. * `repo --help`: Shows repo's core options, lists all commands (no specific info), and then exits 0. The first case is not behaving well: * If you run `repo` without a specific subcommand, that's an error, so we should be exiting 1 instead. * Showing only subcommands and no actual option summary makes it seem like repo itself doesn't take any options. This confuses users. Let's rework things a bit. Now we have the behavior: * `repo`: Shows repo's core options, lists all commands (no specific info), and then exits 1. * `repo --help`: Shows repo's core options, shows common subcommands (with short description), and then exits 0. * `repo --help-all`: Shows repo's core options, shows all subcommands (with short description), and then exits 0. Basically we swap the behavior of `repo` and `repo --help`, and fix the exit status when the subcommand is missing. The addition of --help-all is mostly for the man pages. We were relying on `repo help --all` to generate the repo(1) man page, but that too omitted the core repo options. Now the man page includes all the core repo options and provides a summary of all commands.

repo
Repo is a tool built on top of Git. Repo helps manage many Git repositories, does the uploads to revision control systems, and automates parts of the development workflow. Repo is not meant to replace Git, only to make it easier to work with Git. The repo command is an executable Python script that you can put anywhere in your path.

Contact
Please use the repo-discuss mailing list or issue tracker for questions.
You can file a new bug report under the "repo" component.
Please do not e-mail individual developers for support. They do not have the bandwidth for it, and often times questions have already been asked on repo-discuss or bugs posted to the issue tracker. So please search those sites first.
Install
Many distros include repo, so you might be able to install from there.
# Debian/Ubuntu.
