New tools git repo

[vogella]

Hello,

AFAIK the Android development tools are currently migrated to a separate Git repo. I think that would be awesome, as this would reduce the required file footprint for potential contributors like myself. 

Is the new repo already online or is their a bug to which I can register to see updates about the process?

Best regards, Lars

It just came online a few days ago, but not everything is fully
building as yet. (a few components of the tools, and eclipse plugins
aren't being built as yet).

You can still checkout the repo with:

$ repo init -b ub-tools-idea133
$ repo sync

We'll update the http://tools.android.com/build site within a few days.

Hi Siva,

thanks for the info. I tried to clone it on my laptop but it failed with insufficient storage. Is there a way to see how big this repo is?

it's difficult to show this anywhwew since it's multiple git projects each with their own history.

It's not small though, since it includes the full community edition of IntelliJ. It's probably around ~4.1GB

Please do not send me questions directly. Thanks!

Thanks Xavier, that seems reasonable and worth cleaning my my laptop to clone the repo. 

Best regards,  Lars

Awesome, cloning worked. 

Can someone point me to the information how to configure Gerrit for ADT (Eclipse) contributions?

[Xavier Ducrohet]

I'm not sure what you mean by configuring Gerrit. There's information here about the upload/review process: http://source.android.com/source/contributing.html

Thanks, that was the link I was looking for.
