Submodules are special. You cannot recreate the exact state from a commit in the superproject, for one, and often not even from the commit itself, since the submodule can contain more than just the tracked files. Also, no submodule _has_ to be checked out. If you are working inside a superproject, chances are that you are uninterested in most of the submodules. So no, there is nothing to change here, please move along.
