Hi, I raised this as a bug, but was asked to re-post here.
For a benchmarking experiment I need to build a frozen version of V8. For most VMs this means just checking out a specific git version of the code and building it. For V8 it is complicated by the depot_tools system. I've yet to find a reliable way to do this. In the past, I've gotten by with cloning a specific version of depot tools, fetching V8, then walking the dependencies resetting the git versions of everything to a fixed date (this hack is needed because `fetch` gets moving targets). When this stopped working (it was a hack anyway), I resorted to rolling my own tarballs, which is not really ideal either. Is there an official way to build an frozen version of V8? How do you guys build (e.g.) V8-5.8.283.32 and using the dependencies of the time of that release? Without the ability to do this, it's difficult to conduct repeatable benchmarking experiments on V8.
