Salvation is through faith alone, it is not by works so that no man may boast.
So, how does repentance factor into this? Does it matter or is it necessary for salvation?

If orangebox is a protestant (especially evangelical/calvinist/lutheran sects), then faith alone is all you need. Confession/repentance/good works aren't required.
Ephesians 2:8-9/Romans3:28-30/4:5/5:1/9:30/10:4/11:6/Galatians 2:16,21/3:5-6,24/Philippians 3:9.
If it could be proven beyond doubt that God exists...
and that He is the one spoken of in the Bible...
would you repent of your sins and place your faith in Jesus Christ?
