+Name: Dr. Memory
+Short Name: drmemory
+URL: http://code.google.com/p/drmemory
+Version: 1.7.1955
+License: LGPL 2.1
+License File: NOT_SHIPPED
+Security Critical: no
+
+Description:
+This directory contains a self-extracting 7z file with Dr. Memory
+(which is a Memcheck analog with Windows support) to be used
+by Chromium Dr. Memory/Windows buildbots and Chromium developers.
+
+More info on using Dr. Memory for testing Chromium can be found here:
+http://dev.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/using-drmemory
+
+To update the Dr. Memory distribution, please do the following steps:
+0) Download the latest package from
+ http://build.chromium.org/p/client.drmemory/builds/
+ e.g.:
+ $ curl -s http://build.chromium.org/p/client.drmemory/builds/drmemory-windows-rXXX-sfx.exe -o drmemory-windows-sfx.exe
+
+1) Upload the package to Google Storage:
+ $ upload_to_google_storage.py --bucket chromium-drmemory drmemory-windows-sfx.exe
+ This will produce a file drmemory-windows-sfx.exe.sha1 in the current
+ directory.
+
+2) Replace the existing drmemory-windows-sfx.exe.sha1 file with the new
+ file created by the upload step.
+
+3) Update the README.chromium file's Version field.
+
+4) Commit the sha1 and README.chromium changes locally and upload the CL.
+
+5) Run a trybot job to the bot named "win_drmemory", e.g.:
+ git cl try -b win_drmemory
+
+6) If the trybot is green, commit the new sha1 file and README.chromium.
+ If it's red, find out if it's due to broken DrMemory binaries that you just
+ checked in, or whether the MFYI bot was red at the same revision.
