1 Chrome的代码量巨大，下载编译的过程一出错，可能就需要回头从来。工欲善其事，必先利其器，推荐电脑内存至少8G，否则会难以忍受的慢，当然是64位系统，您还需要设置显示文件后缀名。如图，将勾选去掉
2 然后安装Visual Studio 2010 Uitimate，安装路径默认。安装最全的，以后省心，然后顺序安装：
Usage: gclient.py <command> [options]
Commands are:
cleanup Cleans up all working copies.
config Create a .gclient file in the current directory.
diff Displays local diff for every dependencies.
fetch Fetches upstream commits for all modules.
help Prints list of commands or help for a specific command.
hookinfo Output the hooks that would be run by `gclientrunhooks`
pack Generate a patch which can be applied at the root of the tree.
recurse Operates on all the entries.
revertRevert all modifications in every dependencies.
revinfo Output revision info mapping for the client and its dependencies.
runhooks Runs hooks for files that have been modified in the local working copy.
status Show modification status for every dependencies.
sync Checkout/update all modules.
update Alias for the sync command. Deprecated.
Prints list of commands or help for a specific command.
Options:
--version show program's version number and exit
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-j JOBS, --jobs=JOBS Specify how many SCM commands can run in parallel;
default=8
-v, --verbose Produces additional output for diagnostics. Can be
used up to three times for more logging info.
--gclientfile=CONFIG_FILENAME
Specify an alternate .gclient file
--spec=SPEC create a gclient file containing the provided string.
Due to Cygwin/Python brokenness, it probably can't
contain any newlines.
