+## Git-repo for Windows and Linux ##
+
+This is a port of the [git-repo](http://source.android.com/source/version-control.html) tool from Unix to Windows.
+Git-repo was developed by Google for their Android platform in order to manage multiple Git repositories with a single tool.
+For further information, refer to the [git-repo](http://source.android.com/source/version-control.html) page of Android.
+
+Since the original git-repo tool is supposed to work only on Unix systems, therefore uses platform dependent features,
+Windows users have no viable solution for handling huge progjects which include many git repositories.
+
+The mainly used, platform dependet features are: symbolic links as well as the creation of new child processes with fork().
+
+### Requirements ###
+
+* Python 3+
+* Windows 7+ (symbolic link support)
