  so how does that look like in git diff? My guess is you have a .git/
subdirectory there and thus Git assumes that it is a submodule? I don't
think we actually have a way to specify that some directory should NOT
be considered a submodule even if it is a git checkout... So you will
probably either have to actually convert this to a submodule in your
project (probably the sanest thing to do), move the .git subdirectory
away or submit a patch that will add say a .gitattributes flag not to
consider this subdirectory to be a submodule (which might make some
sense).
