capture dependencies of configure scripts and generared files improve cleaning
Remove 25 library and utility submodules from .gitmodules and switch to using official Hackage releases instead. This simplifies the build system and reduces repository complexity. • Remove submodule entries for libraries (binary, bytestring, containers, etc.) and utilities (hsc2hs, hpc) that are now available as Hackage packages • Where necessary, include hackage packages as extra-packages in cabal.project files • Simplify Makefile by removing library-specific header copy functions and submodule-related build rules • Replace boot script with direct autoreconf invocations in Makefile for configure script generation • Update configure target handling to use individual .ac files rather than boot script coordination • Remove template-hsc.h staging since hsc2hs is now a Hackage package • Clean up synthesis logic for ghc-boot-th-next package generation • Delete now-obsolete submodule directories and boot orchestration code

I think this should be done upstream if possible. I'd go for a rebase of the entire submodule history on top of ghc directly. |
This is not about inlining submodules. This is about using proper facilities to reference them.
We can do this in stable-haskell, because we can build ghc just with cabal-install, and don't need hadrian. |
