This section contains useful information for folks on Chrome Metrics.
## Processing histograms.xml
When working with histograms.xml, verify whether you require fully expanded
OWNERS files. Many scripts in this directory process histograms.xml, and
sometimes OWNERS file paths are expanded and other times they are not. OWNERS
paths are expanded when scripts make use of merge_xml's function MergeFiles;
otherwise, they are not.
