Getting Started

To get started with PitchBlack Recovery, you'll need to get familiar with Git and Repo.

To initialize your local repository using the minimal-manifest-twrp omni trees to build PBRP, use a command like this:

$ repo init -u git://github.com/PitchBlackRecoveryProject/manifest_pb.git -b PBRP

For Initial Low RAM Devices or older MTK Devices:

$ repo init -u git://github.com/PitchBlackRecoveryProject/manifest_pb.git -b twrp-6.0

To initialize a shallow clone, which will save even more space, use a command like this:

$ repo init --depth=1 -u git://github.com/PitchBlackRecoveryProject/manifest_pb.git -bPBRP

For Initial Low RAM Devices:

$ repo init --depth=1 -u git://github.com/PitchBlackRecoveryProject/manifest_pb.git -b twrp-6.0

Then to sync up:

$ repo sync

Then to build:

     $ cd <source-dir>
     
     $ export ALLOW_MISSING_DEPENDENCIES=true
     
     $ . build/envsetup.sh
    
     $ lunch omni_<device>-eng
     
     $ mka recoveryimage

If it fails to build:

     $ export LC_ALL=C
