vmm-xen repository uses also core-vchan-xen and
gui-agent-xen-hvm-stubdomain to build them into stubdomain. Currently it is done using some pre-build script, which assume that those components are just next to vmm-xen directory. This approach is non-intuitive, error-prone and hacky. Example problems:

  • non-obvious fails when trying to build just vmm-xen component
  • not (easily) possible to build vmm-xen component outside of qubes-builder
  • easy to mess up branches in those repositories (for example build Xen from
    R3 branch, while having vchan from R2 branch).

The best solution seems to be usage of git submodules. Additionally this gives better version track - since submodules are pointing at exact commit, it will be obvious which vchan and gui-agent version were used for particular stubdom package version.
