The automated release process deletes the stable branch and then recreates it. A client that fetches during that window can't find it: `repo init` fails to resolve --repo-rev, and the daily self-update in `repo sync` fails with "Cannot fetch repo tool". In the launcher, if --repo-rev doesn't resolve after the initial fetch, wait 10 seconds and refetch once before giving up. `resolve_repo_rev` gains a `report_errors` flag so this first check doesn't print an error that the refetch then fixes. Bump the launcher version to 2.69 so existing users pick this up. For fetches of the repo project itself (sync's self-update and `repo selfupdate`), wait 10 seconds instead of 4 before retrying. The delay is now a `RETRY_SLEEP_INITIAL_SEC` class attribute that `RepoProject` overrides, so other projects keep the 4 second delay. This replaces the unused `retry_sleep_initial_sec` parameter of `_RemoteFetch`.

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
Shell Completion
Repo includes completion scripts for Bash and Zsh.
Bash
To enable completion in Bash, source completion.bash in your ~/.bashrc:
source /path/to/git-repo/completion.bash
Zsh
To enable completion in Zsh, you can either:
-
Copy or symlink
completion.zshto a file named_repoin a directory in your$fpath:mkdir -p ~/.zsh/completion # You can copy the file: cp /path/to/git-repo/completion.zsh ~/.zsh/completion/_repo # Or symlink it: ln -s /path/to/git-repo/completion.zsh ~/.zsh/completion/_repoThen add that directory to your
fpathin~/.zshrcbeforecompinit:fpath=(~/.zsh/completion $fpath) autoload -Uz compinit compinit -
Or source the file directly and call
compdefin your~/.zshrc:source /path/to/git-repo/completion.zsh compdef _repo repo
