## Get the code
In System Preferences, check that "Energy Saver" -> "Power Adapter" ->
"Prevent computer from sleeping automatically when the display is off" is
checked so that your laptop doesn't go to sleep and interrupt the long network
connection needed here.
Create a `chromium` directory for the checkout and change to it (you can call

dependencies.
```shell
$ fetch chromium
$ caffeinate fetch chromium
```
Running the `fetch` with `caffeinate` is optional, but it will prevent the
system from sleeping for the duration of the `fetch` command, which may run for
a considerable amount of time.
If you don't need the full repo history, you can save time by using
`fetch --no-history chromium`. You can call `git fetch --unshallow` to retrieve
the full history later.
