If we later see that we really want to have it we can always introduce it later. I don't think we should do it now if we don't see clear benefits _now_. So I was not against the link object itself (initially I wanted to do it this way, too), only agains the information which was proposed to be stored there. Up to now I haven't found anything which makes sense to store next to the submodule commit to define the identity of the submodule. -- Martin Waitz
