Allow use of third_party/trace-viewer of different revision/with modifications #1

Closed dcoshea closed 11 years ago

It would be great if there was a facility enabling use of a different revision, or modified version, of third_party/trace-viewer. It is great that the tool doesn't require you to manually fetch these dependencies, but I've found myself hacking the code to try new revisions, and then disable the checkout so I can hack the trace-viewer code itself. I don't know whether this facility ought to take the form of an option instructing the tool to not do the Subversion update on third_party/trace-viewer, or an option pointing the tool at a completely different directory in which it should find trace-viewer.

Try --trace-viewer ...E.g. when I do my tev development, I do tev --trace-viewer ~/Local/trace_viewer...
