The main tool of interest is the "presubmitter" command, which
periodically polls Gerrit for new unverified changes and runs various
presubmit checks on them.
+
+Buildglue follows normal Go project conventions, so it can be
+downloaded and installed in just a few steps:
+
+ # Create a Go workspace (if you don't have one already)
+ mkdir buildglue
+ export GOPATH=$PWD/buildglue
+
+ # Invoke the go tool
+ go get gwt.googlesource.com/buildglue.git/...
+
+The $GOPATH/src/gwt.googlesource.com/buildglue.git directory will now
+contain a clone of the buildglue Git repo, and the $GOPATH/bin
+directory will contain the compiled commands.
+
+(Caveat: Because googlesource.com currently silently ignores TCP
+connections to port 9418 instead of rejecting them, the "go get"
+command takes longer than necessary to download initially.)
