Hi, when I wan to sync Gentoo:RAP repos I get: $ emaint sync -r rap >>> Syncing repository 'rap' into '/apps/gentoo/usr/portage-stage'... /apps/gentoo/usr/bin/git clone --depth 1 https://anongit.gentoo.org/git/proj/android.git . fatal: destination path '.' already exists and is not an empty directory. !!! git clone error in /apps/gentoo/usr/portage-stage q: Updating ebuild cache in /apps/gentoo/usr/portage-stage ... q: Finished 139 entries in 0.008619 seconds * IMPORTANT: 14 news items need reading for repository 'gentoo'. * Use eselect news read to view new items.

hmm, it sounds like this is an issue with using depth=1. There should be a .git directory in the checkout. If not, then that would certainly cause a problem with git and generate the error you are getting. There have been far too many problems associated with using depth=1. As a result the workarounds were becoming far morre time consuming than a full git history. And that was for the main gentoo tree which has many, many more commits per day than this project. This project shows at most a dozen commits per month. So there is little benefit to a shallow clone. In fact in portage-2.3.3 we've removed most of the code involved in shallow clones, it was just too problematic. Please try portage-2.3.3 without the depth=1 setting, see if you still get the sync error.
First of all, here is the complete listing of that directory now renamed to portage-stage.old (showing there always was .git/ indeed): $ ls -latr /apps/gentoo/usr/portage-stage.old/ total 168

Just in case the > snapshots themselves or snapshots making host needs a tweak. If bootstrap-rap.sh unpacks a tarball, but repos.conf refers to a git repository, then the "fatal: destination path '.' already exists and is not an empty directory." error is expected, because this state is invalid. It looks like bootstrap-rap.sh is responsible for creating this invalid state, when it configures repos.conf for git here: if is-rap && [[ ! -f ${ROOT}/etc/portage/repos.conf ]] ; then cat >"${ROOT}"/etc/portage/repos.conf <<-EOF [DEFAULT] main-repo = gentoo eclass-overrides = rap [gentoo] location = ${ROOT}/usr/portage sync-type = rsync sync-uri = rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage [rap] location = ${ROOT}/usr/portage-stage sync-type = git sync-uri = https://anongit.gentoo.org/git/proj/android.git auto-sync = no EOF fi
It would solve the problem if http://dev.gentoo.org/~heroxbd/android-master.tar.bz2 contained a .git directory.
