Path does not exist: e:\cef3\chromium\src\.DEPS.git

I'm trying to download and build CEF on my windows box.
No matter what I do, I get the following error:
--> Updating DEPS file: e:\cef3\chromium\src\.DEPS.git
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "automate-git.py", line 774, in <module>

File "automate-git.py", line 223, in remove_deps_entry
raise Exception('Path does not exist: %s' % path)
Exception: Path does not exist: e:\cef3\chromium\src\.DEPS.git

download and build works fine on my mac

What CEF version are you trying to build? You should use the newest version of automate-git.py from master: https://bitbucket.org/chromiumembedded/ ... ?at=master

Is there a way for the script to check that it is out of date?

Interesting idea... should be possible, but it might be challenging to nail down the definition of "out of date" in a Git-based world.

Glad I found this thread. For anyone working on 2454, the automate-git.py script is still broken on branch 2454 compared to master, specifically in the implementation of apply_deps_patch.

master:

elif cef_branch != 'trunk' and int(cef_branch) <= 1916:

2454:

elif cef_branch != 'trunk':
