depot_tools是個工具包，裏面包含gclient、gcl、gn和ninja等工具。其中gclient是代碼獲取工具，它其實是利用了svn和git。主要涉及的depot_tools文件夾下的文件有：gclient、gclient.py、subcommand.py、gclient_utils.py。
gclient文件是個bash腳本:
#########glcient###########
/usr/bin/bash
base_dir=$(dirname "$0")
if [[ "#grep#fetch#cleanup#diff#" != *"#$1#"* ]]; then
"$base_dir"/update_depot_tools
fi
PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE=1 exec python "$base_dir/gclient.py" "$@"首先，獲取腳本的目錄並賦值給base_dir，然後判斷命令參數1是否爲grep|fetch|cleanup|diff，如不是則執行base_dir下的updat_depot_tools腳本，該腳本更新git、svn工具。最後調用當前腳本目錄(depot_tools)下的python腳本gclient.py，並把參數都傳遞給該腳本。

.....
dispatcher = subcommand.CommandDispatcher(__name__)
try:
return dispatcher.execute(OptionParser(), argv)
......
if '__main__' == __name__:
sys.exit(Main(sys.argv[1:]))
在gclient.py腳本開始，調用函數Main，參數爲bash腳本傳遞來的。Main主要執行兩個過程，一是建立dispatcher對象，參數爲當前模塊；然後調用dispatcher的execute方法，參數一是OptionParser對象，參數二爲傳遞給Main的參數。

在gcient.py中，dispatcher = subcomamnd.CommandDispatcher(__name__)，可以看出傳入的參數是gclient.py這個模塊。在CommandDispatcher的__init__中，self.module就是gclent。瞭解這點對理解後面的enumrate_commands函數有用。從它的名字就可以看出是枚舉所有支持的命令，返回的結果是dict，鍵是命令名稱，值爲對應的處理函數，如{"sync" : CMDsync}。其他函數如_add_command_usage, _create_command_summary, _gen_commands_list是些輔助函數，功能也比較明確。比較複雜的是find_nearest_command，它是從enumerate_commands生成的dict字典裏查找命令，如果沒有精確匹配的，就通過模糊查找，並返回對應命令的處理函數。

參數OptionParser是gclient.py中的一個類，它繼承子模塊的optparser.OptionParser。主要功能是解析參數，並返回tuple（options， args），關於OptionParser這個例子說明的很清楚。返回值就是輸入參數被格式化分析後的結果。這個函數處理分兩個層面，一是如果是幫助查詢，一個是執行命令。在幫助查詢時，用戶輸入的命令如：gclient --help sync等。其實，傳到execute的時候，參數變成--help sync，那麼首先是調換參數位置，使得結果爲sync --help，也就是args[0]爲"sync", args[1]爲--help，然後調用self.fine_nearest_command函數，查找精確命令或者最相似的模糊匹配的命令，並把結果（命令處理函數以CMD開頭）賦值給command變量。
進入到execute()，解析參數，find_nearest_commands()得到命令後，判斷是不是幫助命令，如果不是就直接調用對應的處理函數return command(parser, args[1:])。用上例來說就是調用CMDsync函數，參數是parser 和sync後的參數。
看看CMDsync是如何處理輸入參數的？
