Summary

This blog walks through customizing Zephyr's West manifest to manage multi-repository Zephyr projects. It explains the manifest YAML structure, overrides, groups, and practical workflows for reproducible builds and CI integration.

Key Takeaways

• Configure West manifests to declare repositories, revisions, and groups for multi-repo Zephyr projects.
• Use local_overrides and manifest fragments to test and develop changes locally without altering upstream manifests.
• Manage pins, branches, and tags to achieve deterministic builds and control dependency versions.
• Integrate manifest generation, mirrors, and west commands into CI pipelines to speed fetches and ensure reproducible builds.
