virt-test will have a subdirectory 'test-providers.d' that contains

an example structure of a test provider file:
Weren't .d directories kinda obsoleted?
Also, I know I'm late, but would it be possible to use git submodules
instead?
We did consider submodules, but we wanted a solution a bit more
flexible. For example, if people want to put virt-tests on a random
subdir of qemu.git, that would be possible with test providers, and it'd
be very awkward with only submodules.
Can you explain this more? I'm intrigued. :)
Hypothetically, the two files currently in test-providers.d would be
replaced by a .gitmodules file like this one:
[submodule "qemu"]
path = test-providers/qemu
url = https://github.com/autotest/tp-qemu.git
subdirs = generic/ qemu/ openvswitch/
^ I did not know git submodules supported subdirs.
They don't, but you can add arbitrary keys to the .gitmodules file.
I believe it is fine using git submodules + test providers, should the
need arise.
Is there documentation for how to "initialize" the provider
repositories? Will "./run -t qemu" do just that?
