Today, Google took the wraps off the Nexus 5 and the Android 4.4 KitKat release. Now we're happy to announce the matching open source release. You can read more about what's new in Android 4.4 KitKat on our developer site.
We are in the process of making two new branches available:
kitkat-dev for kitkat open source contributions
kitkat-release the kitkat release build (KRT16M) for the Nexus 5--which will be tagged with android-4.4_r1.
We are making the proprietary binaries and factory images available for the Nexus 5 today as well.
In the coming weeks, other Nexus devices (Nexus 4, 7, and 10) will receive their KitKat update, and we'll make those proprietary binaries and factory images available at that time.
We will reply to this thread later this evening (PST), when everything is ready.
Enjoy!
Update: all clear!
You can now download the kitkat source. Please refer to the Codenames, Tags, and Build Numbers for details. The proprietary binaries and factory images are available for download.

Updating repo solves this.
As per virtual box, AFAIK support for out of the box has been deprecated since the first releases of JB.
However, since ever since 4.3 (I think) all partitions are ext4, transforming from an emulator build to vbox one should be relatively easy.

Just like the last guy, wrong java version. Kitkat seems to be more sensitive about the exact version. JDKs that worked for jellybean are producing this error.

Thanks guys. I got it running.
Can you let us know when the kernel sources are pushed for the various devices?
The platform/manifest doesn't have a 4.4_r1 tag at this point. Does one need to be added, or is one coming?

For syncing 4.4 code should I use the following?
Anyone got the change log?

Which CAF branch will the flo and mako kernels be based on? MSM-3.4 like the hammerhead kernel or jb_2.5-2.6 like mako and flo? Also, is there a reason 3.10 wasn't used for hammerhead? MSM-3.10 appears to support 8974, but I'm not sure how stable/working it is (you would know better than I would).

FYI: When syncing a "--mirror", there are many missing .git projects, that will break the syncing from any repo client.To name a few: All lge/hammerhead* , platform/art, and everything related to "chromium" at external/
