Clean up a confusing gclient_utils.py message While setting up a Chromium repo on a new machine I ended up with a missing .gclient_entries file. This triggered a warning message but it led me in the wrong direction. I think that the new message - saying exactly what problem was detected - will be slightly more helpful.

Tools for working with Chromium development. It requires python 2.7.
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 or git submodules, 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.git cl
: A code review tool to interact with Rietveld or Gerrit. Use git cl help
for more details and 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.
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 git
and python
.
