Repo sync issues

Hi ,

I am trying to build lolipop for dragonboard 410c, but when i am trying to sync source code i am facing out of memory issue.

Steps which i did :-

sakhi@sakhi-Lenovo-Z580:~/build_410c$ repo sync -j10

error: error: Exited sync due to fetch errors


Then i have given force option ( repo sync -j1 -f --force-sync) in the command

sakhi@sakhi-Lenovo-Z580:~/build_410c$ repo sync -j1 -f --force-sync

Past one week i am struggling while syncing the code, any help would be appreciated

Thanks in advance.

How much RAM and swap does your laptop have?

To be honest I’m a little worried that if you are running out of RAM simply doing version control then you may experience more severe problems when you try to build the code (see Android build requirements for more details).

It is possible that the memory error you observe is a mis-report (other types of resource exhaustion may share the same error code) but lets rule that out first.
