1. First install some packages dependent on git.

      yum install zlib-devel
      yum install openssl-devel
      yum install perl
      yum install cpio
      yum install expat-devel
      yum install gettext-devel


Next, if you have installed curl, skip this step. If not, install it.

       wget http://curl.haxx.se/download/curl-7.18.0.tar.gz
       tar xzvf curl-7.18.0.tar.gz
       cd curl-7.18.0
       ./configure
       make
       make install


Check whether/usr/local/lib is in the lD. So. conf file. This file is prepared for Git-http-push.

 


VI/etc/lD. So. conf
# Insert the following code
/Usr/local/lib

Save the file and run:

        /sbin/ldconfig


We 'd better download git and install it.

        wget http://www.codemonkey.org.uk/projects/git-snapshots/git/git-latest.tar.gz
        tar xzvf git-latest.tar.gz
        cd git-{date}
        autoconf
        ./configure --with-curl=/usr/local
        make
        make install

 

2. Download the repo Tool

$ Mkdir $ home/bin

$ VI. bashrc

Join

Export Path = $ home/bin: $ path

$ Source. bashrc

$ Curl http://android.git.kernel.org/repo> $ home/bin/Repo

$ CD $ home/bin

$ Chmod + x Repo

 

3. Export the android Project

$ Cd

$ Mkdir android

$ CD android

$ Repo init-u git: // android.git.kernel.org/platform/manifest.git
Complete the prompt configuration, so that the directory we created has been linked to the Google Android source code library.

 

4. Download the source code of Android platform.

$ Repo sync

Because the source code of Android is very large, the complete code is now more than 3 GB, so the most sub-folder for Synchronous download. To download kernel:

$ Repo sync Kernel

 

If you want to use a branch instead of the Code on the main line, you need to use the-B parameter to specify the branch name, for example:
Repo init-u git: // android.git.kernel.org/platform/manifest.git-B cupcake
In another case, we only need the code of a project, such as kernel/common, without Repo. Just use git.
Git clone git: // android.git.kernel.org/kernel/common.git
This also takes a lot of time, because it will copy the entire Linux kernel code.
If you need a branch code, use git checkout. For example, if we have just obtained the kernel/common. Get code, we should first enter the common directory and then use the following command:
Git checkout origin/Android-goldfish-2.6.27-B goldfish
So we built a local Android-goldfish-2.6.27 branch named goldfish, and the code was synchronized with the android-goldgish-2.6.27. You can use git branch to list all local branches.
5. Synchronize the version Library
UseRepo syncCommand to synchronize the entire android code tree to the local device. Similarly, we can use
Repo sync project1 project2...
This command is used to synchronize several projects.
To synchronize a single project in Android, you only need to execute a simple
Git pull
You can.

Now, you can do other things to allow the computer to automatically download the source code.
