This primarily trigger concurrency bugs that are fixed in the
follow-up commits.

- Sort modules and tests alphabetically (they were maddeningly close to alphabetic)
- Consistently label unit test groups at top-level

Try to resolve unused-packages warnings

Marius Melzer authored 3 years ago and Mikolaj Konarski committed 3 years ago

The documentation for the active-repositories option "none" was incorrect as it missed the colon.

* Avoid templating GitHub Actions workflow

GitHub Actions workflow have sufficient power to express what we need.
We don't need to maintain and additional templating solution on top.

* Add GHC 9.2, bump bounds, fix syntax

* Switch to official haskell image

* Always run cli tests for ghc 8.2 and above

* Remove step to regenerate GitHub Actions workflows

* Fix missed reference to GHC version

* Fix yaml syntax

* Fix type in the GHC version

* More CI changes

- Run bootstrap.yml on ubuntu-latest
- Use explicit matrix for linux.yml
- Drop containers in favour of haskell setup action
- Drop workaround for ancient git

* Remove unneeded package from CI setup

I belive this is only necessary to run `cabal man` which we do not in
the CI.

* Drop old GHCs from the CI

* Switch macos.yml to haskell/action/setup

Also add the same GHC versions as Linux.

* Simplify CI

- Remove cabal-plan, we actually never call it (I think)
- Remove vendored cabal-doctest
- Remove few stray allow-newer clauses no longer necessary, apparently

Originally done by @gbaz in PR #7907.

* Enable caching in the CI

* Fix typo

* Remove continue-on-error until I figure it out

* Keep naming consistent

* Temporarily disable 8.0.2 on macos

* Add missing step id

* Tweaks

Remove workaround for nektos/act, it accidentally sneaked in.

* More tweaks

* Tweaks

* Restore cabal-plan, temporarily mark everything experimental

cabal list-bin doesn't seem to work like cabal-plan does.

* Tweaks

* Ensure cabal-plan executable gets built

* Install automake on MacOS

* Tweaks

* Tweaks

Link experimental flags to relative GitHub issues

* Fix typo
