So this is why it's really important that the submodule really is a git repository in its own right, and why committing stuff in the supermodule NEVER affect the submodule itself directly (it might _cause_ you to also do a commit in the submodule indirectly, but the submodule commit MUST be totally independent, and stand on its own).

An implication of this is that the entire administrative
responsibility for having some super-sub module interaction
lies entirely with the supermodule.


That's a good thing. I wouldn't want the openssl maintainers to have to bother with every project that uses their code, and I'm fairly certain they feel the same.
