replace submodule with subtree for /library

Rendanic opened this issue · 1 comments

I think it's time to replace the submodule by subtree.
Why?

  • try to update the git repository at customers without internet access
    I have 1 customer and that's really pain in the ass...
  • managing Pull-Requests with dependencies between ansible-oracle and ansible-oracle-modules
  • Forking project with own changes

The usage of submodules creates a lot of issues on my side and I am for replacing it by a subtree with --annotate for remote commits.

I did some discussions on our side and we will replace the submodule in our fork at https://github.com/opitzconsulting/ansible-oracle

It is really difficult to maintain changes and extensions for ansible-oracle with the current submodule integration. The 1st commit for the subtree is a squash on top of the last commit of the submodule from master branch.
