What is use_relative_hooks and why does gclient keep bugging me about it?

[Ian Barkley-Yeung]

My DEPS file has no "use_relative_hooks", but gclient keeps bugging me to remove it anyways.

$ grep use_relative_hooks DEPS

$ gclient sync --jobs 16

use_relative_hooks is deprecated, please remove it from DEPS. (it was merged in use_relative_paths)                            

Syncing projects: 100% (236/236), done. 

(etc)

What is up with that? 

Thanks

Ian

Does `--verbose` show where the gclient sees such a variable?

Or maybe come from https://source.chromium.org/chromium/chromium/src/+/master:third_party/swiftshader/third_party/angle/angle/DEPS;l=7;drc=df5ed61ddbcab119b059e6e5bd28a049b726766a ?

But I didn't see the warning in today's sync on my machine.

It appears in between the sections for src/remoting/webapp/app_remoting/internal and src/tools/perf/data. Not sure if the warning is associated with the next section or the previous section.

Did you run `grep` in the directory having .gclient?

If so, you can file a bug to clarify the warning in the Infra>SDK component.

[Michael Moss]

There's a clue in:

gclient(803) ParseDepsFile:Updating hook base working directory to /ssd/iby/chromium/src/chromeos/assistant/libassistant/src.

That's a reference to (internal only):

https://chrome-internal.googlesource.com/external/gob/libassistant-internal/standalone/src.git/+/refs/heads/master/DEPS

which is brought in by some seriously enthusiastic recursedeps (src->src-internal->src/chromeos/assistant/internal->src/chromeos/assistant/libassistant/src).

The OWNERS should probably update that DEPS.
