If you DO NOT check out chromium source code, you can stop reading. *What's the change?* To reduce people's confusion about the LayoutTests directory, I am moving it from *src/webkit/data/layout_tests/LayoutTests* to *src/third_party/WebKit/* *LayoutTests*. For details of this request, see issue: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=8765
The first patch <http://codereview.chromium.org/146112> related to this directory moving has been committed. The patch allows run_webkit_tests.py to support both src/webkit/data/layout_tests/LayoutTests and src/third_party/WebKit/LayoutTests directories I have a pending patch <http://codereview.chromium.org/155115> that actual moves the directory. I am planning to move the directory next Monday after Nicholas updates the buildbot gclient configurations. *What do you need to do NOW?* -. If you have LayoutTests as part of your client or don't care the size of your working copy, you DO NOT need to do anything *now*. -. If you excluded LayoutTests from your client and want continue to exclude them, please add the following line to custom_deps section in your .gclient file: "src/third_party/WebKit/LayoutTests": None, For example, if you have an old .gclient like this: "custom_deps" : { "src/webkit/data/layout_tests/LayoutTests": None, } You need to change it to: "custom_deps" : { "src/webkit/data/layout_tests/LayoutTests": None, "src/third_party/WebKit/LayoutTests": None, } *What's Next?* I will send out email once the patch is committed (planned for next Monday). You may want sync your client and do following after sync: -. For those who exclude LayoutTests in their client, remove the following line from .gclient file. No need to have the old one anymore. "src/webkit/data/layout_tests/LayoutTests": None, You still need this line: "src/third_party/WebKit/LayoutTests": None, -. For those who include LayoutTests in their client, manually remove directory "src/webkit/data/layout_tests/LayoutTests" to save space. Let me know if you have any questions.
