How can I check out a previous revision from the repository.

[cetzweiler]

The tutorial only tells me how to "repo init" and "repo sync".

I am having build issues and I want to check out an older version.

I have information that this worked on Thursday - 4 days ago.

This is my "repo init", if it helps:

repo init -u https://github.com/Freescale/fsl-community-bsp-platform -b dora

Thank you,

Chuck

You may select a specific SHA, tag or branch on the manifest.xml in order to sync to that specific commit or branch. The revision field accepts any SHA, tag or branch.

You would need to locate a specific SHA or tag that is close to the specific date you are looking for. In order to do this you would need to use git and locate the desired commit on the log.
