Dependency fetcher
Project description
DFetch can manage dependencies
We needed a dependency manager that was flexible enough to retrieve dependencies as plain text
from various sources. svn externals, git submodules and git subtrees solve a similar
problem, but not in a VCS agnostic way or completely user friendly way.
We want self-contained code repositories without any hassle for end-users.
Dfetch must promote upstreaming changes, but allow for local customizations.
The problem is described thoroughly here and sometimes
is also known as vendoring.
Other tools that do similar things are Zephyr's West, CMake ExternalProject and other meta tools.
See alternatives for a complete list.
