  <pre><code>repo init \-u ssh://website.com:29418/repo
  repo sync

  <pre><code>M-70NN:bin rda$ repo init \-u ssh://website.com:29418/repo
  error: in `init -u ssh://website.com:29418/cmx-ng-repo`: 
  
  [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/Users/rda/bin/.repo/manifests/.git/HEAD'
  error: manifest missing or unreadable -- please run init
  </code></pre>
