Android source code - Which release, r1 or r(last) ?

[pierrelgcb]

Hello,

I am building Android 5.1.1 for i.MX 6. In Android User's guide $3.1 "Getting Android source code", we download android-5.1.1_r1.

~/bin/repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest -b android-5.1.1_r1

Why do we download release r1 instead of r37, which is the last release for 5.1.1 ?

Regards,

Pierre

refer to the user guide, pls use the command:

$ ~/bin/repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest -b android-5.1.1_r1

for r37, could you send the document or command to me ?

r1 is for 5.1.1_2.1.0

Hello,

Thanks for the reply. I ask myself why we shouldn't type command :

~/bin/repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest -b android-5.1.1_r37

to use last Android 5.1.1 release (bug fixes, updates, etc...) ?

OK, I will use r1 command.

Regards,

Pierre
