Metarepo: An alternative to git submodules
Metarepo is used to manage dependencies on other git repositories when git submodules is not sufficient. It was inspired by the repo tool by Google but instead of requiring the manifest to be stored in its own repository, it is stored in the same repository.
Installation
# Install from PyPI
pip3 install --upgrade metarepo
# Install from git using PIP
pip3 install --upgrade git+https://github.com/blejdfist/git-metarepo
Usage
You can run metarepo in two ways, standalone or using git. Both methods work the same and it is only a matter of personal taste.
git meta
metarepo
Create an initial manifest.yml configuration using the init command
git meta init
Synchronize the repositories
git meta sync
Manifest structure

A note on package security
PyPI is a repository for distributing packages, not a service for auditing them. While third-party security researchers and our staff do their best to detect and remove malicious packages, PyPI cannot guarantee the quality, security or suitability of any given package.
