> That's because git-submodule doesn't really interconnect across repos (not much anyways). A submodule is a completely separate repo Yeah. I know. Submodules is the file that has link to external repo, and hash to submodule current Head/current version. ---- I think you misunderstood my example. Ss14 has RobustToolbox submodule. I changed something unrelated in ss14 on branch fix. But master updates submodules. I rebase fix on master. Git bash notes Robust has changed. Nothing else does. Why? How? This is just some awful implementation details leaking the flimsy Git submodules abstraction.
