The Replicant source code is currently hosted at Gitorious: https://gitorious.org/replicant
There is a branch per Replicant version, like replicant-2.2
.
Start by defining the place where you want to download Replicant tree.
The path to this place must have no space!
Then, download the repo
tool and set it executable:
mkdir tools cd tools wget https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo chmod a+x repo cd ../
The source manifest is the list of all the git repos that are present in the Replicant tree.
There is one manifest per replicant version.
mkdir replicant-2.3 cd replicant-2.3 ../tools/repo init -u git://gitorious.org/replicant/manifest.git -b replicant-2.3
mkdir replicant-2.2 cd replicant-2.2 ../tools/repo init -u git://gitorious.org/replicant/manifest.git -b replicant-2.2
Now that you have configured repo to use a manifest, you can start downloading Replicant sources for the desired version.
This is step is very long and can take the whole day to complete!
