V8 JavaScript Engine
=============
V8 is Google's open source JavaScript engine.
V8 implements ECMAScript as specified in ECMA-262.
V8 is written in C++ and is used in Google Chrome, the open source
browser from Google.
V8 can run standalone, or can be embedded into any C++ application.
V8 Project page: https://code.google.com/p/v8/
Getting the Code
=============
Checkout [depot tools](http://www.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/install-depot-tools), and run
> `fetch v8`
This will checkout V8 into the directory `v8` and fetch all of its dependencies.
To stay up to date, run
> `git pull origin`
> `gclient sync`
For fetching all branches, add the following into your remote
configuration in `.git/config`:
fetch = +refs/branch-heads/*:refs/remotes/branch-heads/*
fetch = +refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*
