This document mainly introduces how to download the Android source code of VIM4.

Download from github

Android 14

1. Create an empty directory to store working files:

$ mkdir -p WORKING_DIRECTORY

2. Run repo init to download the manifest repository first:

3. Run repo sync -c to pull down the Android Source branch:

$ repo sync -c -j4

The initial sync operation may take an hour or more to complete.

You might need to run above command repeatly if it fails halfway. Or you can try with this script instead:

repo sync -c -j4
while [ $? = 1 ]; do
	echo "Sync failed, repeat again:"
	repo sync -c -j4
done

If needed, press Ctrl+C to quit.
