CAF public mirrors

There are currently 6 main mirror locations:

• Portland, Oregon, USA: portland.source.codeaurora.org
• Oregon, (another location), USA: oregon.source.codeaurora.org
• Mumbai, India: mumbai.source.codeaurora.org
• Singapore: singapore.source.codeaurora.org
• Beijing, China: source.codeaurora.cn

CAF uses geo-IP based DNS servers to direct default requests to the nearest server. If you are in Mainland China, please see the section below on how to use the Beijing mirror.

Using CDN-backed bundle files

NOTE: not recommended for Mainland China.

The main development tool, repo, can use git bundle files in order to offload a lot of traffic to a locally-available CDN mirror. CAF provides bundle files, but they are not available for use with project manifests that use the legacy git://codeaurora.org URLs. If you would like to benefit from improved download speeds, please execute the following command to always use the new-style https://source.codeaurora.org URLs:

This should significantly improve cloning speed for many people accessing CAF from outside of North America or APAC.

Use the fast mirror for read-only "repo sync"

To use the mirror in a private repo, run the following command:
