A nasty problem with separate repositories for submodules is that when you screw up and git complains about everything you try do do, you previously could do rm -rf *; git reset --hard and retry whatever you were trying to do. With separate repositories your submodules will be resting in /dev/null, unless you're very, very careful. -- robin - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
