Tizen is primarily designed for the full source to be built via OBS. If
I were going off on my own to make a Tizen IVI based stack that I could
sell to a tier 1 or directly to an automotive manufacturer, then i would
clone the Tizen OBS environment and then clone all the git tree's and
configure my OBS instance to pull from my git trees. I would then
continue doing development exactly like I to today on Tizen but just
point my gbs at my own instance of OBS instead of the
downloads.tizen.org.
Yes, gbs does provide some capabilities to build a collection of git
repositories, but not the entire OS including toolchains.
