The small detail in the last step is wrong, though.  Even if
they EXIST, they may be isolated commits that are note connected
to refs, and fsck in the repository would not have warned about
unreachable trees from such unconnected commits.

The superproject *is* a ref.

But when you fsck the subproject repository in isolation in the
earlier step in your procedure, that is not taken into account,
is it?

Ah, forget about this.  The HEAD, which is in the tree of the
higher-level project, is a ref.  Silly me.
