Every now and then I still build b2g to test something out. So far *every
single time* |git pull && ./config.sh flame-kk| breaks on some repository which
is apparently changed but that I never touched. How is this user friendly?!
Today:
Fetching project fake-qemu-kernel
error: Cannot fetch fake-qemu-kernel (GitError: --force-sync not enabled;
cannot overwrite a local work tree. If you're comfortable with the possibility
of losing the work tree's git metadata, use `repo sync --force-sync
prebuilts/qemu-kernel` to proceed.)

... I NEVER EVER touched fake-qemu-kernel ...
Sooooo let's run the suggested: repo sync --force-sync prebuilts/qemu-kernel
-bash: repo: command not found
OK. So where the f* is fake-qemu-kernel located... I'd guess in
prebuilts/qemu-kernel as that's what repo sync suggests.
Jans-MacBook-Pro-2:b2g janjongboom$ cd prebuilts/qemu-kernel
Jans-MacBook-Pro-2:qemu-kernel janjongboom$ git status
Not currently on any branch.
nothing to commit, working directory clean
OK. So I'm not even on a branch so why the f* is it complaining?!
Ah well, I know that we have a repo bundled with the b2g repo so I can then use
that to remove it, but seriously. I want to run ./config.sh flame-kk on a clean
directory and that it would just like, urm, work?
P.S. I'm also pretty sure that similar errors can show up that just report the
name and not where they're located on filesystem (bluetooth library does this I
think if you have a dirty version of that) which will leave you clueless
because there's no direct mapping between name and fs location.
P.S.2. It also happens that config just exists with 'Cannot fetch repository'.
Sooo... which one? Why? Why didn't it retry?
P.S.3. I have my own gecko configured in .userconfig, so if I see: `gecko/:
discarding 2 commits` after config'ing, I'm quite worried. Config should not
touch my gecko.
