Commit change to OpenROAD (or other tool), and push to GitHub
Patch dependencies/tool_metadata.yml with your repo and commit
In openlane/docker run make build-openroad_app. This will automatically build a build environment, and then build OpenRoad from the specified repo and commit. This takes about 30 mins, and unfortunately is re-done from scratch every time.
Run make openlane in the same directory
This prints the tag at the end of the build, set this as your OPENLANE_IMAGE to test.
