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.
Other tools that do similar things are Zephyr's West
, CMake ExternalProject
and other meta tools.
See alternatives for a complete list.
