How to use github for android developmen

== Local manifest ==
In .repo create a file called local_manifest.xml to replace the original parts with your github forks. It should look like:
{{{
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>  
  <remove-project name="Andromadus/android_frameworks_base" path="frameworks/base" />
  <project name="guhl/android_frameworks_base" path="frameworks/base" revision="jellybean" />
  <remove-project name="Andromadus/android_packages_apps_Settings" path="packages/apps/Settings" />
  <project name="guhl/android_packages_apps_Settings" path="packages/apps/Settings" revision="jellybean" />
</manifest>
}}}

== Local branch and push ==
Create your local branch to work on:
{{{
git remote add origin git@github.com:guhl/android_frameworks_base.git
git remote show origin
}}}
If the remote branches are not shown as tracked do:
{{{
git fetch
git remote show origin
}}}
Checkout a branch
{{{
git checkout -b jb origin/jellybean
}}}
Now you can work on your local branch jb and push to the remote origin/jellybean
