How to clone source code of Android marshallow

Question

I'm trying to clone source code of Android Marshallow from this link. In the section

Initializing a Repo client

Third point Run repo init to bring down the latest version of Repo with all its most recent bug fixes. You must specify a URL for the manifest, which specifies where the various repositories included in the Android source will be placed within your working directory.

$ repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest

So I provide this url for manifest

$ repo init -uhttps://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest/+/refs/heads/android-6.0.1_r9

Then I got this

gpg: keyring `/home/shyam/.repoconfig/gnupg/secring.gpg' created
gpg: keyring `/home/shyam/.repoconfig/gnupg/pubring.gpg' created
gpg: /home/shyam/.repoconfig/gnupg/trustdb.gpg: trustdb created

try `repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest -b android-6.0.1_r9` followed by `repo sync -c -j12` — ElpieKay, May 19 '16 at 08:47
@ElpieKay What is the use of this command $ repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest — Zzz0_o, May 19 '16 at 08:56
`repo init` makes a folder .repo in the current folder. And clone the git platform/manifest from -u and checkout the branch of -b into .repo/manifests. This git holds a group of manifest.xml. There is usually a default.xml which is the basic manifest. It describes how many git repos compose the whole codebase, and which revision to checkout in each repo after repo sync. By default.xml you can always sync the latest, the newest code. Besides, it holds manifests of a specific baseline, which is a revision of the whole codebase, aka the all over 400 repos. — ElpieKay, May 19 '16 at 09:09
@Michael But when I run this command "repo init -u android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest" Why I'm getting this error "curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 404 Not Found Server does not provide clone.bundle; ignoring." — Zzz0_o, May 20 '16 at 04:58
The correct url is `https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest`, not `android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest` — Michael, May 20 '16 at 05:29
@Michael Yes, I used The same url , As you mentioned. Here is the output http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/16517104/ — Zzz0_o, May 20 '16 at 05:51
The latest log that you pasted indicates that `repo init` succeeded. The curl error is just saying that the server doesn't support clone bundles, and can be ignored.

For future reader, you may need `--repo-url `, see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/26646741/cannot-get-https-gerrit-googlesource-com-git-repo-clone-bundle#comment61799040_26646741 — 林果皞, Mar 22 '19 at 12:03
