I am still concerned about the submodule thing - once we push a mainline version out with the format decided, that will be that and we'll be stuck with it. Are we _really_ sure that it's right to have a non-object hash in the tree objects?
It's a fundamental change in the form of the tree: at the moment every hash in the tree object represents another object in the same repository; with gitlink as it is, that convention is broken.
Let's be really, really sure. I'm not sure a big enough fuss has been made of the fact that this is a change of repository format. Before this you could pretty much access any repository with any version.
