 Portfile attached. This is as a move towards being able to build the Dart
 SDK using MacPorts — its build process relies on these tools.

 The portfile unpacks the tools under /opt/local/libexec/depot_tools (as
 per http://dev.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/install-depot-tools the
 distribution is simply intended to be unpacked and used in-place). Any
 suggestions for a better place to put it are welcome!

 Other ports which use depot_tools to build (i.e. the Dart SDK port I'm
 having a go at) will use the tools from that location.

 I used the date as the version number, since there are no official
 releases, just a moving-target git repository, and date seemed a good way
 as any to make a human-readable version number (I pin a specific git
 commit from that day).

 In general these tools update themselves automatically when used. By
 removing the .git subdirectory, this behaviour should be prevented.
