Error with Repo-init/ Master not signed

[Paul_K]

Hi,

Tried downloading android 1.5 source with *repo init -u git://
android.git.kernel.org/platform/manifest.git* -b android-1.5. (This is
what is published in Google release notes page for platform source
download)



I am getting error: "fatal: branch "stable" has not been signed"



And with =--no-repo-verify= option its giving ="fatal
refs/remotes/origin/stable^0: not a valid SHA1=94


Appreciate help on this.

thanks in advance

Paul

My first suspicion is your repo wrapper script (`which repo`) or a url.insteadof in ~/.gitconfig is pointing at a mirror of repo, and that mirror of repo is missing the v1.6.7.5 tag.

Again, this sounds like you are pointing at a mirror that is lacking the "stable" branch, so when repo grabs its own code, it can't locate the proper version to execute.  This lack of the stable branch could also be the reason why you got the "stable has not been signed" error above.  If the stable branch doesn't even exist, you would also get that error.
