A new age is upon us!

Be sure you read the wiki before you complain here about your builds being 
broken.  :-)

Actually, I take that back - making a separate PR to change the opal/pmix 
embedded component to a submodule was way too painful. I simply added it to the 
existing #7202.

Just an FYI: there will soon be THREE PRs introducing submodules - I am 
breaking #7202 into two pieces. The first will replace opal/pmix with direct 
use of PMIx everywhere and replace the embedded pmix component with a submodule 
pointing to PMIx master, and the second will replace ORTE with PRRTE.

We now have two PRs pending that will introduce the use of Git submodules (and 
there are probably more such PRs on the way).  At last one of these first two 
PRs will likely be merged "Real Soon Now".

We've been talking about using Git submodules forever.  Now we're just about 
ready.

*** DEVELOPERS: THIS AFFECTS YOU!! ***
**************************************

You cannot just "clone and build" any more:

-----
git clone g...@github.com<mailto:g...@github.com>:open-mpi/ompi.git
cd ompi && ./autogen.pl && ./configure ...
-----

You will *have* to initialize the Git submodule(s) -- either during or after 
the clone.  *THEN* you can build Open MPI.

Go read this wiki: https://github.com/open-mpi/ompi/wiki/GitSubmodules

May the force be with us!
