ghc-complete is a repository that contains (besides some scripts) only
one file, a fingerprint:

~/build/haskell/ghc-complete $ cat fingerprint 
.|5874f13fd83409b28c4f781a93e80f4605d0593e
libffi-tarballs|a0088d1da0e171849ddb47a46c869856037a01d1

libraries/binary|2799c25d85b4627200f2e4dcb30d2128488780c3
...

It is updated regularly (currently a cronjob every 15 minutes, ideally
by push hooks), and each push triggers a build of exactly these recorded
versions of all components via travis:
https://travis-ci.org/nomeata/ghc-complete/builds

This way, travis builds are triggered also by updates to, say, the
testsuite, it allows for reproducible builds, and possibly allows
bisecting and other stuff. It is a weak substitute for having everything
in proper submodules.

As a developer, you usually would not interact with ghc-complete.

Greetings,
Joachim
