Issue
I've been using repo
for quiet a long time now but never bothered to know what <remove-project>
in manifest.xml
does.
What does <remove-project>
do — it doesn't download the project at all or it downloads it but removes it from codebase later?
It's here somewhere but I'm pretty bad at reading python.
Solution
https://gerrit.googlesource.com/git-repo/+/master/docs/manifest-format.md#Element-remove_project
Element remove-project
Deletes the named project from the internal manifest table, possibly allowing a subsequent project element in the same manifest file to replace the project with a different source.
This element is mostly useful in a local manifest file, where the user can remove a project, and possibly replace it with their own definition.
