- manifest repository
-
"Every west workspace contains exactly one manifest repository, which is a Git repository containing a manifest file. The location of the manifest repository is given by the manifest.path configuration option in the local configuration file."
^ unnamed section
Excerpt from west documentation:
The available self keys and their usage are in the following table. self keys Key Description path Optional. The path west init should clone the manifest repository into, relative to the west workspace topdir. If not given, the basename of the path component in the manifest repository URL will be used by default. For example, if the URL is https://git.example.com/project-repo, the manifest repository would be cloned to the directory project-repo. west-commands Optional. This is analogous to the same key in a project sequence element. import Optional. This is also analogous to the projects key, but allows importing projects from other files in the manifest repository. See Manifest Imports.
