Can't repo init android 源代码镜像

Question

I'm trying to mirror Android source code but it's not possible. I had to upgrade python to 3.6 and update repo.

However I can't repo init android source mirror.

jeffrey@devserver:/home1/aosp/mirror$ repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/mirror/manifest --mirror Downloading Repo source from https://gerrit.googlesource.com/git-repo Downloading manifest from https://android.googlesource.com/mirror/manifest Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home1/aosp/mirror/.repo/repo/main.py", line 627, in _Main(sys.argv[1:]) File "/home1/aosp/mirror/.repo/repo/main.py", line 601, in _Main result = run() File "/home1/aosp/mirror/.repo/repo/main.py", line 594, in run = lambda: repo._Run(name, gopts, argv) or 0 File "/home1/aosp/mirror/.repo/repo/main.py", line 260, in _Run result = cmd.Execute(copts, cargs) File "/home1/aosp/mirror/.repo/repo/subcmds/init.py", line 519, in Execute self._SyncManifest(opt) File "/home1/aosp/mirror/.repo/repo/subcmds/init.py", line 220, in _SyncManifest default_branch = m.R esolveRemoteHead() File "/home1/aosp/mirror/.repo/repo/project.py", line 1914, in ResolveRemoteHead output = self.bare_git.ls_remote('-q', '--symref', '--exit-code', name, 'HEAD') File "/home1/aosp/mirror/.repo/repo/project.py", line 3034, in runner (self._project.name, name, p.stderr)) error.GitError: manifests ls-remote: usage: git ls-remote [--heads] [--tags] [--upload-pack=] [-q | --quiet] [--exit-code] [--get-url] [ [...]]

Can anyone help on this?

Thanks,

Your 'git ls-remote' does not have '--symref' parameter, maybe you need to update the git version.
