I've been using Avery Pennarun's git-subtree
(http://github.com/apenwarr/git-subtree) for a while now and have been
finding it very useful and problem-free.
Git submodules have been particularly problematic for me on a project
which contains submodules which contain submodules. git-subtree "just
works", without any futzing.
We've also had problems with less git savvy users dropping patches
because they've occurred inside of a module.
It would be really nice if git-subtree became an part of git. Avery
has submitted git-subtree in the past and has indicated a willingness to
do so again if there was a good chance of acceptance.
Avery's announcment of v0.3 is also informative:

thank you,
