That would also work, but it might need some scripting. Probably having
some server side hooks to enforce the policy allowing no-one except the
buildbot to change those branches/tags would help here. Also submodules
would make it easier to see when they differ from the commits recorded
in the superproject, so a script running something like "git describe"
in all local repos and displaying the results might be a good idea to
get that information.
