Setting up the repo utility
Repo is a tool built on top of Git that makes it easier to manage projects that contain multiple repositories, which do
not need to be on the same server.
Open a terminal window and create a bin folder (This step may not be needed if the bin folder already
exists).
$mkdir ~/bin
To install the “repo” utility, perform these steps:
$curl http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/bin/repo
$chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
$export PATH=~/bin:$PATH
