gcl, gclient and friends are moving from http://src.chromium.org/svn/trunk/depot_tools/ to http://src.chromium.org/svn/trunk/tools/depot_tools/
To help you with the switch, there is now a little script to switch automatically. Just run ** *convert_depot_tools* to convert the depot_tools to the new checkout. Warning: the output of this tool isn't nice. If anything fails, just checkout manually: *svn co **http://src.chromium.org/svn/**trunk/tools/depot_tools*<http://src.chromium.org/svn/trunk/tools/depot_tools> The end result is the same. The far biggest advantage is that there is only one place for all the scripts (no more platform specific) and you can now send patches directly from your depot_tools; e.g. no need to do a separate checkout and run scons anymore. The old depot_tools is scheduled to be removed on May 12, 2009 and you will be upgraded *automatically* next time you run gclient after that date. Windows-only side-effects: - It won't install svn client nor python if they are found in %PATH%. - If you used svn lately, the old depot_tools version was upgraded to 1.6. If you have svn 1.5 in your %PATH%, you may have trouble working with your checkout. Just removing your old client from the path and run "gclient help" again.
