# depot_tools
This package contains tools for working with Chromium development. It requires
python 2.7.
## Tools
The most important tools are:
- `fetch`: A `gclient` wrapper to checkout a project. Use `fetch --help` for
more details.
- `gclient`: A meta-checkout tool. Think
[repo](https://source.android.com/source/using-repo.html) or [git
submodules](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-submodule), except that it support
OS-specific rules, e.g. do not checkout Windows only dependencies when
checking out for Android. Use `gclient help` for more details and
[README.gclient.md](README.gclient.md).
- `git cl`: A code review tool to interact with Rietveld or Gerrit. Use `git cl
help` for more details and [README.git-cl.md](README.git-cl.md).
- `roll-dep`: A gclient dependency management tool to submit a _dep roll_,
updating a dependency to a newer revision.
There are a lot of git utilities included.
## Updating
`depot_tools` updates itself automatically when running `gclient` tool. To
disable auto update, set the environment variable `DEPOT_TOOLS_UPDATE=0`.
To update package manually, run `update_depot_tools.bat` on Windows,
or `./update_depot_tools` on Linux or Mac.
On Windows only, running `gclient` will install `svn` (not for long), `git`,
`python`.
