Brian Norris b577444a90 project: Copy and link files even with local branches
In the winding maze that constitutes Sync_LocalHalf(), there are paths
in which we don't copy-and-link files. Examples include something like:

  cd some/project/
  repo start head .
  # do some work, make some commit, upload that commit to Gerrit

  [[ ... in the meantime, someone addes a <linkfile ...> for
     some/project/ in the manifest ... ]]

  cd some/project/
  git pull --rebase
  repo sync

In this case, we never hit a `repo rebase` case, which might have saved
us. Instead, the developer is left confused why some/project/ never had
its <linkfile>s created.

Notably, this opens up one more corner case in which <linkfile ... /> or
<copyfile ... /> could potentially clobber existing work in the
destination directory, but there are existing cases where that's true,
and frankly, those seem like bigger holes than this new one.

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
