Issue 47: cpplint.py missing from repository? http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=47
New issue report by mdmkolbe: The guide on contributing (http://code.google.com/p/v8/wiki/Contributing) says that one should run tools/presubmit.py before submitting. However, tools/presubmit.py tries to call a script named "cpplint.py". This script is not in the repository and I have not been able to find any third party project that includes such a tool. Of course, this check can be bypassed with "--no-lint", but that kind of defeats the purpose of having tools/presubmit.py since it appears cpplint.py does the bulk of the work in tools/presubmit.py. Either, (1) the wiki should point to where to get cpplint.py (if cpplint.py is part of a separate or third party project), or (2) cpplint.py should be included in the repository (if cpplint.py is from google and can be released), or (3) the wiki should be updated to note that outside contributors will need to pass the "--no-lint" option since cpplint.py will not exist on their system (if cpplint.py is internal to google and cannot be released).
