DETAILS

163       The 'repo gitc-init' command is ran to initialize a new GITC client for
164       use with the GITC file system.
165
166       This command will setup the client  directory,  initialize  repo,  just
167       like repo init does, and then downloads the manifest collection and in‐
168       stalls it in the .repo/directory of the GITC client.
169
170       Once this is done, a GITC manifest is generated by pulling the HEAD SHA
171       for  each project and generates the properly formatted XML file and in‐
172       stalls it as .manifest in the GITC client directory.
173
174       The -c argument is required to specify the GITC client name.
175
176       The optional -f argument can be used to specify the  manifest  file  to
177       use for this GITC client.
