Following directions on Android's main website to pull down sources, I'm looking at this command to initialize repo for the cupcake branch:
repo init -u git://android.git.kernel.org/platform/manifest.git -b cupcake
How can I view all available branches besides cupcake, i.e eclair, donut, etc...?
The quickest way to list available branches without cloning/downloading anything is this one-liner:
$ git ls-remote -h https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest.git
