There are two big projects doing something in this area which are _not_ using git submodules because they are ... weird. Android: repo tool: http://source.android.com/source/version-control.html http://source.android.com/source/using-repo.html Android has hundred of gits repos of various components and they use the repo tool to work with them. They can tag this way a release across all repositories for example. Chromium uses gclient from the depot tools http://dev.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/depottools (only feature, it works on Windows) -- Duncan Mac-Vicar P. - http://www.suse.com/ SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstraße 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: yast-devel+owner@opensuse.org
