VIM4: Download Android Source Code

Introduction

Android Source Code branch of Khadas VIMs is located on GitHub, and there are many different branches here. You can follow the steps to download the Source Code.

Steps

Install git-lfs tool to download Android 11.0 SDK

$ mkdir git_lfs
$ cd git_lfs
$ wget https://github.com/git-lfs/git-lfs/releases/download/v2.3.4/git-lfs-linux-amd64-2.3.4.tar.gz
$ tar xvzf git-lfs-linux-amd64-2.3.4.tar.gz
$ cd git-lfs-2.3.4
$ sudo ./install.sh
$ git lfs install

1) Create an empty directory to store working files:

$ mkdir -p WORKING_DIRECTORY
$ cd WORKING_DIRECTORY

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

$ repo init -u https://github.com/khadas/android_manifest.git -b khadas-vim4-r

3) Run repo sync to pull down the Android Source branch:

$ repo sync -j4

It will take approx one hour to complete the initial sync operation.

If the initial sync operation failed, you need to run the command repeatly; or you can try with this script:

#!/bin/bash
repo sync -j4
while [ $? = 1 ]; do
echo "Sync failed, repeat again:"
repo sync -j4
done

If needed, press Ctrl-\ to quit.

4) Begin a new branch for development:

$ repo start <BRANCH_NAME> --all
