<p><b>New page</b></p><div>This section describes installing and setting up a {{filename|repo}} tool.<br />
{{filename|repo}} is a tool built on top of {{filename|git}} that makes it easier to manage projects that contain multiple repositories, which do not need to be on the same server.<br />
{{filename|repo}} is not meant to replace {{filename|git}}, but it complements very well the layered nature of the Android or the Yocto Project, making it easier to work with them.<br />
<br>To install the {{filename|repo}} utility, perform these steps:<br />
* Create a bin folder in the home directory (not required if the {{filename|~/bin}} folder already exists):<br />
<pre><br />
$ mkdir ~/bin<br />
</pre><br />
* Download the {{filename|repo}} utility, setup permissions:<br />
<pre><br />
$ curl http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/bin/repo<br />
$ chmod a+x ~/bin/repo<br />
</pre><br />
* Add the following line to the {{filename|.bashrc}} file to ensure that the {{filename|~/bin}} folder is in your {{parameter|PATH}} variable.<br />
<pre><br />
$ export PATH=~/bin:$PATH<br />
