Submodules used to be terrible to use but now that every tool supports it they are usable. A lot of dependency managers are moving to supporting git repos which I think is great. An annoying thing about this though it is causes several round trips to origin that can be saved with submodules. It's never easy... Its better to treat submodules as src dependencies and not wannabe mono-repo tool. Try not to change them. If you read-only they're somewhat painless.
