If you want to look for the appropriate tag to check out exact code branch, try this:

https://android.googlesource.com/platform/build/+refs

So looking at the list, the branch that you should try would be: android-2.2.2_r1

Answer 3

This one worked for me.

repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest -b android-2.2_r1.1

I guess r1.1 is the release branch. can someone affirm this?
