h2. Browsing the source code
4
5
The Replicant source code is currently hosted by the "FSF":https://www.fsf.org/ at: "git.replicant.us":https://git.replicant.us/replicant
6
7
There is one branch per Replicant version, such as @replicant-2.2@.

h2. Disk space
10
11
Before downloading the Replicant source code, make sure there is a considerable amount of disk space left on the drive you intent to build Replicant on.
12
It is advised to have 40-50GiB available for the Replicant source code and the produced files.

h2. Source tree root folder
15
16
The path to the source tree root folder *must not contain spaces*.

h2. Installing the repo tool
19
20
To be able download the complete source code, the "@repo@ tool":https://android.googlesource.com/tools/repo needs to be installed. The distribution you are using may already have the tool packaged and it may already been installed as part of the [[BuildDependenciesInstallation|Build dependencies installation]].
21
22
If the @repo@ tool is not available on your system, you can download and install it locally:
23
24
<pre>
25
mkdir tools
26
cd tools
27
wget https://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo
28
chmod a+x repo
29
cd ../
30
</pre>
31
32
In the following, the local installation in @../tools/repo@ is assumed. If you have installed @repo@ from your system's package manager, replace
33
34
<pre>
35
../tools/repo
36
</pre>
37
38
with just
39
40
<pre>
41
repo
42
</pre>

at the beginning of the following commands.

46
h2. Initializing the repository
47
48
The source manifest is the list of all the git repositories that are present in the Replicant tree.
49
Each Replicant version has a dedicated branch with the proper source manifest.
50
51
In case errors such as *server certificate verification failed* happen, installing the CACert certificate may help:
52
<pre>
53
mkdir /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/cacert.org
54
wget -P /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/cacert.org http://www.cacert.org/certs/root.crt http://www.cacert.org/certs/class3.crt
55
update-ca-certificates

59
60
<pre>
61
mkdir replicant-6.0-dev
62
cd replicant-6.0-dev
63
../tools/repo init -u https://git.replicant.us/replicant/manifest.git -b replicant-6.0-dev

<pre>

mkdir replicant-4.2

cd replicant-4.2
71
../tools/repo init -u https://git.replicant.us/replicant/manifest.git -b replicant-4.2

h3. Replicant 4.0
75
76
<pre>
77
mkdir replicant-4.0
78
cd replicant-4.0
79
../tools/repo init -u https://git.replicant.us/replicant/manifest.git -b replicant-4.0
80
</pre>
81
82
h3. Replicant 2.3
83
84
<pre>
85
mkdir replicant-2.3
86
cd replicant-2.3
87
../tools/repo init -u https://git.replicant.us/replicant/manifest.git -b replicant-2.3

<pre>
93
mkdir replicant-2.2

cd replicant-2.2

h2. Downloading/Updating the source code
99
100
Now that you have configured @repo@, you can start downloading Replicant sources for the desired version.
101
102
*This step is very long and can take hours to complete!*
103
104
<pre>
105
../tools/repo sync
106
</pre>
107
108
Once the source code is ready, you need to get the prebuilt applications (they are downloaded from F-Droid):
109
<pre>
110
vendor/replicant/get-prebuilts
111
</pre>
112
113
You must redo these steps each time you want to sync your tree, in order to keep it up to date. Future syncs are faster than the first one.
