New, Future-proofed Pre-Cupcake Checkout

Posted on January 22nd, 2009 in Android Misc by Disconnect  Tagged , , , ,

The original method of getting a pre-cupcake tree only worked until the second cupcake merge was done. But now, thanks to JesusFreke, it is again possible to get the pre-cupcake tree.

Just run 

repo init -u git://android.git.kernel.org/platform/manifest.git -b release-1.0
wget -O .repo/local_manifest.xml "http://source.android.com/documentation/building-for-dream/local_manifest.xml?attredirects=0"
repo sync

to create the source tree, set up the local_manifest.xml from the Building for Dream page, and download all the release-1.0 baseline code.

All you have to do next is run the attached script, and viola! You’ll have a copy of the code as it was just before the cupcake merge.

Update: DL link fixed.
Migrate from release-1.0 to pre-cupcake (121)

    repo sync fails here at the moment: release-1.0 seems not to exist in the extra projects referred to by local_manifest.xml. :-(
