XD Trol 630876f9e4 init: add an option --enable-git-lfs-filter
It was reported that git-lfs did not work with git-repo. Specifically,
`git read-tree -u` run by `repo sync` would fail git-lfs's smudge
filter. See https://github.com/github/git-lfs/issues/1422.

In fact, by the time `git read-tree -u` is run, the repository is not
bare. It is just that, the working directory is not the same as the
.git directory. git-lfs's filter should work. No one seems to have
delved into that issue.

Today, with newer versions of git-repo and git-lfs, that issue will
not reproduce. Tested with
- git 2.33, git-lfs 2.13 on macOS
- git 2.17, git-lfs 2.3 on ubuntu

So, it seems fine to add an option --enable-git-lfs-filter, default to
false, and stat that it may not work with older versions of git and
git-lfs in the help doc.

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.
$ sudo apt-get install repo

# Gentoo.
$ sudo emerge dev-vcs/repo

You can install it manually as well as it's a single script.

$ mkdir -p ~/.bin
$ PATH="${HOME}/.bin:${PATH}"
$ curl https://storage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/.bin/repo
$ chmod a+rx ~/.bin/repo
