theme: Replace gnome-shell-sass submodule with subtree As the style has grown bigger and more complex, generating the different variants from a common source has been a good decision. However given how intertwined the theme is with gnome-shell itself, relying on a submodule has proven to be quite painful. And as things stand right now, it is going to get worse: - using either pre-generated CSS or generating it at build time is odd, and violates meson's strict separation between source- and build directories; we are therefore considering dropping the CSS and depending on sassc to always generate it at build time - with the migration to gitlab, our workflow shifts decisively towards branches; however there is no support in either git or gitlab for handling two brances of separate repositories consecutively, which gets particularly awkward for branches in a private namespace With those pain points in mind, we will adjust our setup as follows: - remove the submodule from gnome-shell and instead import the sass as subtree - after that, the sass sources can be changed like any other files in the repository, and regular contributors can forget that there was ever anything special about them - whenever we want to update the classic style, we can push the subtree changes and bump gnome-shell-extension's sass submodule In other words: Updating the classic styling will become slightly more painful, but not much and only for me; in return, everyone else can stop fiddling with submodules (and buy me a beer).
