Also, would it be reasonable to have a gitmodules option for submodules that the supermodule doesn't make sense without? E.g., multiple projects are now using kbuild as their build system,Out of couriosity... I know of busybox and klibc. Are there any others using kbuild these days? I see that several build system share some ideas with kbuild which I btw am glad to see. But if there are enough project taking benefit of kbuild I should maybe revisit my idea to factor out all the common stuff somehow.
I'm only sure of busybox and klibc (3 including the kernel is "multiple"), but IIRC a number of linux-specific userspace projects seem awfully similar. I wouldn't be surprised if the build systems that currently share only ideas would share code if it were factored out. -Daniel *This .sig left intentionally blank*
