Configure repo

In order to use Yocto build system, first you need to make sure that repo is properly installed on the machine:

...

repo init -u https://code.rdkcentral.com/r/manifests -m rdkb.xml -b morty


$ repo sync -j`nproc` --no-clone-bundle

Note
  • Cloning the code before login once to code.rdkcentral.com, user would get the Authentication error, even though the account is in good standing and has all the required access.
  • Please login to code.rdkcentral.com before attempting to clone.
