Summary
This PR removes the internal git submodules of
test262
,babel
andTypescript
. These modules were giving more issues than benefits, especially in the website repository where we have some codegen. Working with git submodules was becoming very hostile.Instead, this PR adds a new
checkout
method in the coverage suite, and we use a simplegit clone
andgit reset --hard
to use the revision we need to run our coverage against.Test Plan
This CI will fail because the
main
branch still uses the old method. However, I run this locally and it worked like a charm. That's why I added.gitignore
inside the coverage folder.
