Managing third-party dependencies

Before reading documentation in this directory, please check the general policies in Adding third_party Libraries. You MUST obtain the required approvals before adding a third-party dependency and accept the responsibility as a dependency owner.

This directory contains how-to guides on managing your dependency with autoroll tooling (aka. well-lit paths). Please refer to individual files to understand their use cases and constraints. You should adopt one well-lit path that suits your need (e.g. code organization, need for patching).

You can request to be exempted from the well-lit paths, please refer to Autoroll Exceptions.

If you are not sure which path to take, please file a bug in "Chromium > Third Party > Freshness" component for consultation.

If you're a Googler, you can alternatively email [email protected].
