This is ENABLED BY DEFAULT due to data corruption potential. To disable it, set REPO_BACKUP_OBJECTS=0 in the environment. While the workspace will grow over time, this provides a recovery path for an issue where objects are erroneously deleted from the workspace, resulting in lost work. Once the root cause is determined, we will be able to stop saving backups again. Backups are kept in .git/objects/.repo/pack.bak Bug: https://crbug.com/gerrit/16247 Change-Id: Ib8b5c9b4bf0dfa9e29606e0f5c881d65996b2a40 Reviewed-on: https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/c/git-repo/+/345114 Reviewed-by: Jonathan Tan <jonathantanmy@google.com> Tested-by: LaMont Jones <lamontjones@google.com> Reviewed-by: Xin Li <delphij@google.com>
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}"
