We have
llvm
as a submodule, yet we only add one commit on top of the tagged branch.Having LLVM as a submodule really bloats the repository. Particularly when accidentally, or deliberately, cloning with
--recursive
submodules. This same problem aggravates when you take into account that the python client also has the cpp client (and thus llvm) as a transitive submodule dependency.In this PR I remove the LLVM submodule, and revert to cloning from upstream and applying a patch.
