## README

## What's this?

This git repository exists to allow the source files generated during a Chromium
build to be indexed by [code search](https://source.chromium.org).

You do not need to clone this repository, and it is not used in any way during a
build.

## How does it work?

A Codeserach builder (e.g.
[codesearch-gen-chromium-linux](https://ci.chromium.org/p/infra/builders/codesearch/codesearch-gen-chromium-linux))
regularly does a full build of Chromium, and afterwards pushes all the
generated files (from the `src/out/{out_dir}/gen directory`) into this git repository.

The code search crawler indexes that gitlink repository following all the
gitlinks inside, which eventually leads it here and allows it to index the
generated code.
