python - How to use Google's repo tool on MS Windows OS?

Question

I installed git for windows and it works fine(e.g. use one of the following solutions Want to download a Git repository, what do I need (windows machine)?).

I tried to use repo of google but it needs gpg and python 2.7. I installed both and it works fine the only problem is that repo script use some unix oriented features such as symbolic links and fcntl. Is there any alternative code of repo for windows?

I couldn't found some native solution by google. if there is one I'll try to push it into google repo git repository or try to use it as is.

Answer 1

A working repo tool for windows is available here: https://github.com/esrlabs/git-repo

It requires Python 3+ and git 1.7.2+

Btw, the original forked repo version seems pretty old, so it might not contain all current functionalities.
