In a nutshell:
git-submodules basically records a git revision of your submodules with the 
commits.
You can make such revision switches a natural part of commits.
"git submodule update [--recursive]" will bring your submodule checkouts in 
sync with what the toplevel repository expects.

In any way we can have this discussion separate from the discussion of moving 
to git. We can stay with our current ways of matching same date for now.
