Repo and Cygwin
Chris
No no I'm not going to try to contribute or even compile the project,
just interested in the source code :)
Earlier in this discussion there have been some talk about Cygwin and
one success story too, but I'm having a bit of a problem. Thought I
might post my issue here and maybe someone can help me out...
$ repo init -u git://android.git.kernel.org/platform/manifest.git
0 [main] python 4396 D:\cygwin\bin\python.exe: *** fatal error -

No clue. That is Cygwin being unable to make Windows act like UNIX.
Its a common failure mode for Cygwin, and why a lot of people avoid
it. Since you don't care about trying to compile the source code, you
might have better luck with a native Windows Python and putting
msysgit in your path rather than Cygwin git. The more native windows
implementations of the two might work better. Though now that I say
that, I remember that repo uses symlinks, and native Python and native
msysgit probably can't do that. *sigh*
You're on your own here. The Android SDK for Windows *barely* (and I
do mean barely) gets compiled under Cygwin. On a good day, it
actually downloads the sources and produces an executable. On bad
days, well, it behaves like you are seeing. The major development
platform for Android is Linux or Mac, basically a proper POSIX
environment.
