Hi all,
So I'm now suffering with having to pay an extra $50 for my Bell downloads, as 
I went over my limit without checking! My problem I know. LOL! 

I realized that building for a device will force down all of the components to 
build, hence the 7G of data each time. And well I've downloaded it all about 6 
or 7 times. LOL! So, I'm reading up on GIT, and trying to figure out with the 
shell scripts config and repo, and build, and i'm hoping someone can point me 
to some advice with regards to using b2g git?

I will be using several different devices to test with, and I NOW know that you 
don't have to download everything all over again, that the items that will be 
downloaded will be in the manifest, correct?

#1 to go from one device to another, do you just delete the "build" and the 
.repo (excluding the downloaded files) directory, and change the manifest to 
the right one? (most likely with the config file) is there a specific command?

#2 if you do the config, is everything downloaded all over again, even if it 
already exists? or could we just find out the difference in the manifest file 
and use git to down load that part?

#3 what git command should I use to downloaded the latest changes, and ignore? 
the current files created? 

Please forgive my ignorance, as I'm a systems guy trying to dive into the 
development world so I can better support developers, and I think the best way 
to do that is to focus on the new firefox OS!

I'm also going to read up a bit more on GIT, so if anyone can point me to 
relivent info so i can get up to speed quicker?

and one last question? what's the most cheapest phone to buy (used) that works 
with firefox os?

thank you!
