How to download Skia
====================
Install depot_tools and Git
---------------------------
Follow the instructions on [Installing Chromium's
depot_tools](http://www.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/install-depot-tools)
to download depot_tools (which includes gclient, git-cl, and Ninja).
<!--?prettify lang=sh?-->
git clone 'https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/tools/depot_tools.git'
export PATH="${PWD}/depot_tools:${PATH}"
depot_tools will also install Git on your system, if it wasn't installed
already.
Clone the Skia repository
-------------------------
<!--?prettify lang=sh?-->
mkdir $SRC
cd $SRC
gclient config --unmanaged https://skia.googlesource.com/skia.git
gclient sync
cd skia
Getting started with Skia

you want to make changes, and possibly contribute them back to the Skia
project, read [How To Submit a Patch](../dev/contrib/submit).
