Herbert, or anyone, I'm very confused about the workflow for updating submodules. I want to update several (to remove redundant constraints from contexts) which are maintained by GHC HQ. But for libraries/parallel I find:
* There is no .git/config in libraries/parallel. (Whereas there is for another submodule, libraries/hoopl.) * There is, however, a .git file which points to .git/modules/libraries/parallel * In .git/modules/libraries/parallel/config, I see a url of https://git.haskell.org/packages/parallel.git. But I can't push to this URL. * That matches the url in https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Repositories, but contradicts the url in 'packages', which says ssh://g...@github.com/haskell/parallel.git * I don't understand what URL should be expected for submodules with "-" in the 'upstream url' column of the 'packages' file. It says "-" means 'this is a submodule', but parallel is certainly a submodule and doesn't have "-". But so is hoopl, which does have "-". I tried a minimal change of adding pushurl = ssh://g...@git.haskell.org/packages/hoopl.git to .git/modules/libraries/parallel/config. But when I tried to push I got simonpj@cam-05-unx:~/code/HEAD-2/libraries/parallel$ git push Counting objects: 7, done. Delta compression using up to 32 threads. Compressing objects: 100% (4/4), done. Writing objects: 100% (4/4), 410 bytes, done. Total 4 (delta 3), reused 0 (delta 0) remote: W refs/heads/master packages/parallel simonpj DENIED by refs/.* remote: error: hook declined to update refs/heads/master To ssh://g...@git.haskell.org/packages/parallel.git ! [remote rejected] HEAD -> master (hook declined) error: failed to push some refs to 'ssh://g...@git.haskell.org/packages/parallel.git' So I'm thoroughly stuck. I can't push my main patch until I push the submodule patches. What do I do? And would it be possible to update the wiki pages to make this clear? Especially * https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Repositories * https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/WorkingConventions/Git/Submodules Thanks Simon
