So a commit in the supermodule turns into a commit in the submodule? 

no.

If it doesn't, why would the submodule HEAD have to change?

So how do you update your submodule?

By committing to it separately, or by getting changes from the upstream 
project (openssl, libcurl, ...).

Remember: if you git-pull in the supermodule, you want to update the
whole thing, including all submodules.

Only if the new commits I pull into the supermodule DAG has commits 
which includes a new shapshot of the submodule, otherwise it wouldn't be 
necessary.
