Synchronous fetch of the various repositories specified in manifest, an android-manifest object. The repositories are cloned in a common directory under %repository-cache-directory. This repository depends on the contents of the manifest file, so you can end up with multiple checkouts if you fetch multiple versions.

Each project is downloaded in a subdirectory that is specified by the manifest, files are copied and symlinked as specified. This function is supposed to mimick the behavior of the repo tool.

Import a package called module-name, by looking for it in the bp-files, with help from manifest to find the original source repository.

Download a manifest from a repository (url) at a given branch (version). Return an android-manifest object.

Take a filename as file that corresponds to the name of the file containing the manifest in xml form, and url, the url of the repository from which the file was downloaded. Return a parsed manifest as an android-manifest object.

Resolve an IRI from a base IRI and a relative reference. This is an implementation of the URI resolving algorithm described in section 5.2 of RFC3986. See https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986.
