Hi, I am trying to use submodules to keep a project organized. I am using a workflow that is probably not the common one and I am running into problems. Basically, I have a superproject TOP, with subproject A and B. The thing is that A and B are _not_ cloned from some existing repo. They are two brand new repositories created with git init. Basically, I am doing this so that in the superproject I commit states with specific versions of A and B (that are logically distinct things) that are known to work fine together. Also I am doing this since A and B are actually just started with TOP, but I have a provision of making them independently developed things, so I like to have them separated from start. The thing is that git-submodule makes very strong assumptions on A and B. Particularly, if there is no url defined from them some commands (notably update) will fail. So I need to make a fake url for the submodule (e.g. .) and a fake origin for it (again .) Would it make sense to have a git submodule update not try to fetch if there is no url defined, but still checkout the right commit for the submodule (rather than skipping the submodule at all) ?
