        Hi everyone,
        when I run:

        hybris-patches/apply-patches.sh --m
        

        I keep on getting this error and don't know how to fix:

        the previos rebase directory exists but an mbox was specified
        

        Thanks.

              Oh, thanks for the effort.
              I'll move this thread to the porting category hoping it will drag attention from the knowledgeable people πŸ˜‰

                @carlo I have moved your thread to the Porting section (it makes it a bit clearer what you are aiming at). Also maybe think of editing the title to Nexus 9- can't etc for the same reason.

                      You a re facing a Git error message. Obviously you called the command earlier already, and it did not finish its job.
                      run repo sync -j16 and see where it gets stuck, if at all. The android tree has around 400 repos, so I hope its not many, you have to either force-sync them, or go inside each of them and call git am --abort to stop the rebase, before you can do it again.
                      Never call this apply-patches twice, it will mess up your tree pretty badly πŸ˜‰

                            @flohack said in Can't do: hybris-patches/apply-patches.sh --mb, I get error: the previos rebase directory exists but an mbox was specified:

                            git am --abort

                            I did a sync and it got stuck in /bionic because it had not finished last time. I entered the bionic folder and run git am --abort. Then i went in the BUILDDIR folder and rerun repo sync and it seems to have fixed the problem. Thanks a lot!!

                              I modified the title for you.
                              And I'm glad you figured things out.

                              Best of luck
