Build fails as its unable to create the .repoconfig in the root

I ve been trying to follow the instructions of running build-kitkat.sh.
How ever the build fails as its unable to create the .repoconfig in the root. I presume the .repoconfig must be created in the home dir of the user and not in /
I also could not find run.sh in the docker container in /usr/local/bin/run.sh

Env : Ubuntu 14.04
I have a user group called docker and I m running the script from a user in that usergroup.

Log :

Hey! The problem is file permissions. I speculate that your local user's id and the user in the container differ. Run id as your local user and see if the uid is different then the output of id from the container.

docker run --rm -it kylemanna/aosp:4.4-kitkat id
uid=1000(aosp) gid=1000(aosp) groups=1000(aosp)

Also, the user docker is what the daemon is running as the docker group is what controls access to the docker daemon socket. The problem here is that /home/dhanasek/docker-aosp/tests/kitkat isn't writable by uid 1000 in the docker container.

To be hacky, try chmod 777 /home/dhanasek/docker-aosp/tests/kitkat and see if that helps.

A better solution might be more like this:

export AOSP_VOL=$PWD/build
mkdir $AOSP_VOL && chown 1000:1000 $AOSP_VOL
./build-kitkat.sh

Let me know if that works for ya!
