After Repo sync, there are no files in the directory

I've setup a new Repo for Android source code, and after executing the repo sync, ther开发者_Python百科e are no files in the repo directory. Did I miss something?

I used:

repo init -u git://android.git.kernel.org/platform/manifest.git

repo initialized in /home/tarandeep/code/Android

repo sync

... It downloaded GBs of data (I can confirm via network monitor) and then nothing appeared in the Android directory.

It's a git repo in a hidden directory, .git. "Hidden" just means it starts with a period.

When in doubt, you can use ls -a or ls -al (vertical) to see hidden directories.

However, you will generally interact with the repository using git commands, repo commands wrapping git, or a GUI equivalent.

I experienced this. Somehow I had configured repo incorrectly and it was depositing the source into my home directory rather than my working directory. I blew away all the .repo* directories/files in my home directory, then re-ran repo init and repo sync in the working directory. All was well after that.

You should select a branch using the -b option to repo init, rather than just syncing everything. Then you will see the files show up properly.

For example:

repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest \
          -b android-4.0.1_r1

Just go to /home/tarandeep/code/Android (that is where you downloaded the repo) and hit CTRL+H. You will now find a folder named ".repo". This is your downloaded data.

I meet the same problem. As far as I know, unless repo sync download all files success, the git will not check out projects. In my case, repo sync failed due to some reason. So I got nothing except a hided .repo directory after running repo sync.

Here are some known issues. https://source.android.com/source/known-issues.html

Hope it helps you.
