that’s weird, it should get e-pie. Can you check this file
.repo/local_manifests/manifest.xml
?
What troubles me is that device_phh_treble should checkout e-pie not lineage-16.0
By the way can you check if your repo command is up to date ?
I have updated epro command yesterday befor starting the sync
because now the --force-sync is deprecated so it shouldn’t ask you to use this option, do you use ubuntu ? Which version ? How did you update the repo command ?
I’m building on MINT19. Yesterday I have gotten a message that my repro command should be updated soon and I used the copy command which was prefered.
what it the result of
cd device/phh/treble
git branch -a
git status
?
root@mint:/srv/e/src/PIE/device/phh/treble# git branch -a

I can’t explain what your issue is right now,
can you try a git log on this same folder and give me the first line ?
Should be something like
commit 6740df193e71016617797736f882e52838f784b5 (HEAD, phief/e-pie, m/v1-pie)
sorry, I’m not so the git guy. I’m happy to know how to clone 
So how I’m getting a git log ?
just type: git log

I will retry starting from scratch, I really don’t understand why you have these issues

OK, when using the git clone and repo sync command in an empty folder it is downloading sources as hell. But when I start in my PIE folder with ALL eOS sources, the sync fails.
I have removed the ‘original’ .repo folder and start over, but still sync doesn’t work
what about restarting from scratch then ?
How can I ensure that I will get the real eOS sources ??As far as I know, only cloning the souces includes not all patches from e.foundation. I have tried that log time ago with repro sync and lunch and a e developer has told me, that than not all e.foundation changes are used.
That’s why I want use my ‘proofed’ sources
I guess it was because of the microG patches we used to add, I think now you don’t need them anymore if you make sure to init with
repo init -u https://gitlab.e.foundation/e/os/android.git -b v1-pie
ok, will try tommorrow
