    boot: Do not attempt to update config.sub · 93233a66
    Ben Gamari authored and Marge Bot's avatar Marge Bot committed
    While Apple ARM hardware was new we found that the autoconf scripts
    included in some boot packages were too old. As a mitigation for this,
    we introduced logic in the `boot` script to update the `config.sub`
    with that from the GHC tree. However, this causes submodules which
    have `config.sub` committted to appear to be dirty. This is a
    considerable headache.
    
    Now since `config.sub` with full platform support is more common we can
    remove `boot`'s `config.sub` logic.
    
    Fixes #19574.
