So a subproject *can* be bare, but when it's bare it is just a totally regular independent git project, simply by *definition* of not being checked out inside a superproject. But hey, that was just a design decision of mine, and if people can argue for it being wrong, I don't think I'm married to it ;)
I didn't actually had a use case in mind as I asked it. After a bit of thinking I could imagine a repo which is used for integration exclusively (no compilation or looking at the files at all). - 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
