| Working in a Chromium repo |
| ========================== |
| |
| To work on Skia inside a Chromium checkout, run the following: |
| |
| cd chromium/src/third_party/skia |
| python tools/git-sync-deps |
| |
| This command does a minimal "just sync the DEPS" emulation of `gclient sync` for |
| Skia into chromium/src/third_party/skia/third_party. After that, `make dm` or |
| `./gyp_skia && ninja -C out/Debug dm` in chromium/src/third_party/skia will get |
| you rolling. |
| |
| We no longer recommend the .gclient file manipulation to have Chromium DEPS also |
| sync Skia's DEPS. Most of those DEPS are for building and testing only; |
| Chromium doesn't need any of them, and it can be confusing and problematic if |
| they somehow get mixed into the Chromium build. |
