+This directory contains files copied from the build repo:
+ - https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/tools/build.git
+ - svn://svn.chromium.org/chrome/trunk/tools/build
+
+The revision is:
+ - 353c0efac75463c521763f601bcbdfffc8b291a8 (git)
+ - 295912 (svn)
+
+This exists because src-side code can be easily tested on trybots
+before committing, as opposed to build-side code.
+
+Unfortunately, build-side code corresponding to this directory still
+exists, so it's a fork.
+
+The ultimate goal is to get rid of this code. No new pieces of infrastructure
+should be using it. It's only here for already existing pieces that we need
+to keep running.
+
+Please see https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=506498
+for more context.
