Chetan Mehrotra commented on SLING-7164:
----------------------------------------
I initially faced issue due to presence of python 3.
{noformat}
$ repo init --no-clone-bundle -u https://github.com/apache/sling-aggregator.git
warning: Python 3 support is currently experimental. YMMV.
Please use Python 2.6 - 2.7 instead.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/chetanm/bin/repo", line 883, in <module>
main(sys.argv[1:])
File "/home/chetanm/bin/repo", line 851, in main
_Init(args, gitc_init=(cmd == 'gitc-init'))

_CheckGitVersion()
File "/home/chetanm/bin/repo", line 391, in _CheckGitVersion
ver_act = ParseGitVersion(ver_str)
File "/home/chetanm/bin/repo", line 361, in ParseGitVersion
if not ver_str.startswith('git version '):
TypeError: startswith first arg must be bytes or a tuple of bytes, not str
{noformat}
So had to modify the repo shebang line to explicitly use python2.7 to get going
{noformat}
- #!/usr/bin/env python
+ #!/usr/bin/env python2.7

> This repository should replace the current 'sling' repo as an entry point. It
> should contain a repo manifest ( or similar ) to allow checking out all the
> sling modules and maybe even regenerate a reactor pom.xml file for quick
> operations.
> The README should explain a bit more about Sling and our SCM setup and point
> to the sling home page.
> Also we should update the 'Getting and building Sling' page while we're at it
> -
