Don't release submodule #96

Closed markhindley closed 5 years ago

markhindley commented 5 years ago

Hi,

This is a small wishlist point, but your pwx git submodule gets included in the public branches. It is an issue for some of our contributors who use dgit, which fails with submodules. See https://bugs.debian.org/726953

Thanks

Mark

The submodule is only needed for development. For building elogind it can (and should) be simply ignored.

In the bug you linked, Ian Jackson wrote two days ago:

Each submodules could be resolved by being stripped, or by being populated (replaced by the tree object of the gitlink commit). In the latter case the objects would have to be available.

Just strip it, if this already works. :wink:

@markhindley : I am closing this, as it looks to me like stripping the submodule would solve the issue, right?

If I am mistaken here, feel free to reopen the issue!
