In my experience, git submodules are a powerful feature that is rather <br>
difficult to use correctly. Some of submodule aspects do not feel <br>
"natural" to many humans. I am pretty sure that proper introduction of <br>
submodules will require a lot of our time and nerve cells. What will we <br>
optimize by introducing such a significant complication as git submodules?<br>

That answer probably depends, in part, on what support guarantees we are <br>
going to issue for those submodules and on what our submodule update <br>
policy will be. Integrating two or more git repositories together is a <br>
complicated issue...<br>
