Hey,
I have implemented the bug report here:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYNEWT-71
I think everyone has noticed that on-boarding new users becomes
difficult because we use custom terms for packages, package lists and
repositories. While I personally like these terms (I named them that
way), I think we wan the package and build system to be as easy to use
as possible, and keeping track of these seems to be creating too much of
a hurdle.
So, I have a bunch of mondo commits to rename these. They are low risk,
and I've tested them.
When I commit, in order to maintain your existing targets, you will need
to do the following:
- rename .nest in larva to .repo (this is custom per install, so I
can't move this for you)
- rename nest.db to repo.db in .repo
- rename clutches/ directory pkg-lists/ in .repo
Everything else should operate well, unless you have changes to egg.yml
files that are uncommitted. You will need to manually port those over.
Also, as a part of this commit, I've removed .git from the newt import
path. It seems like the majority of people are able to go get this
without the .git, and it was causing conflicts with newtmgr. (*)
I'll push these to origin master this evening if nobody has objections.

(*) These will eventually be moved, again, when Todd adds
mynewt.apache.org support.
