Please don't sync yet, it's currently in a mixed state. The 'repo for-all git push' is still running and will take some time to complete, so if you sync now you'll get some parts with Gingerbread and some parts with ICS.

  Thanks for all the work you've been doing to bring this to us.

    I'll pass it on to JBQ and Shawn among the people who did the actual work :-)

Also interesting is that it has the Honeycomb source too. I wonder if it is as ugly as some have claimed it to be.

  No it's really clean. load_bin("prop_screen_driver.bin"); load_bin("prop_touch_driver.bin"); load_bin("prop_3g_driver.bin"); fpga_main_loop();

Would love to see this on Github.

  You probably don't. The AOSP is hundreds of individual git repositories. android.kernel.org and the "repo" tool are the only sane way to deal with them.

    Or at least an easy way to browse through the source on the web - rather than having to dload it and have some special tools to allow me to read it. I probably won't be doing anything with it, but very interested to see what it looks like.

      Special tools in the sense of "shell prompt" and "text editor" you mean? I don't disagree that being able to browse a big source tree on the web is a good thing, and useful in many circumstances. But I continue to be depressed at the level of fear that command line tools elicit in modern developers.

        I'm guessing he's referring to the "repo" tool mentioned above.
        ajross 15y ago
        You actually don't need repo to check out individual trees; git works fine. And repo is really easy, there are "paste this in" commands on the AOSP site, after which you never need to look at it again if you don't want to (just git pull individual trees).

      there used to be a gitweb running when aosp was hosted at kernel.org. when the repositories were moved to google servers, jbq@ said that a web interface to the repositories will be coming at some point, but it is a lower priority than other things like a gerrit review tool.

  It's not up to date with today's push, but: https://github.com/android https://github.com/android
