Develop Bugs

fatal:l Not a git repository

Hi
I hope this is the correct area for this question?
I am having a go at building crackling for the Wileyfox Swift (1). I have set up a Unbuntu machine for this purpose as per the instructions on the Lineage website.
The problem I am having is downloading from git.
All goes well for a while, but then I start seeing -
Fatal: Not a git repository: /home/Ubuntu/android/lineage/.repo/projects/external/guice.git
The last folder and file in that string vary.
I have tried git init but that doesnt help.
What I am doing wrong?
Regards
Tubster

Here's just a handful of Guides available on the forum and I believe that one or more of them will be helpful for you. Don't be afraid to ask for some member guidance within one of them.

I DO NOT provide support via PM unless asked/requested by myself. PLEASE keep it in the threads where everyone can share.

Thank you for those links :good:
Unfortunately only one of them mentioned the problem I have, but it had a solution that didn't apply for me.
My problem isnt the setup (I think), as I have copied exactly the instructions on the lineage website.
Most of the source does download, but there's a few dozen areas where it fails with the above metioned error.

Proper way to request features or report bugs?

What is the proper way to request features or report bugs for a given ROM (e.g. Xiaomi Mix 2). I saw a maintainer name was listed but there's no way to contact him.

If you go to the following LineageOS link...
https://download.lineageos.org/chiron
... at the top of the page (under the words "Builds for chiron"), select the "Device info" and it takes you to the following link...
https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/chiron
... scroll to the bottom portion of that page and the listed "Maintainers" reflects "@mikeioannina" as the Official Lineage Team Maintainer for your device.
Fortunately, this individual has the same member name, as follows, on XDA as well.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=3839575
With that stated...
The only thing that I can guide you to is the following Official Lineage Link that reflects a way to either Contribute and where to ask for support.
https://www.lineageos.org/community/
You now have all the information on where/how to contact the Lineage Team and the individual via XDA and the above link.
I hope that I had explained this okay via text...
Good Luck!

TCL AndroidTV + Import/export channels.

Hi
I have an TCL c715 (europe model) running android tv, and im looking to edit my channel list.
There is an option to export/import channel list.
Anyone know about which extennsion is? XML?
Is the any way to edit this list in a pc/mac?

Try with the official channel editor :

channel name, favorite channel, channel lock, and even hide channel through using this tool, and then copy the modified channel list to your TV.

Is the discord group still around?

It's odd that Telegram links are still spammed across the forum but Discord isn't permitted. If someone has the link send it my way in PM I guess. I don't really agree with the removal of links promoting development here. XDA is already relatively barren anymore (and it's not because of Discord lol)

can you please send me the Discord Group link ? thanks
