ok :) so i have a repo and i add a submodule in the libfoo dir. when i add it, git will clone the repo, that's fine. it would be nice to have a command (i thought git submodule update would do it for me) which would pull in the repo _and_ would pull in the libfoo dir, too

currently if you have 10 submodules, you need to updated each of them manually, and having a feature to all of them at once would be nice (of course it's fine if this is not the default when using git pull in the "main" repo)

thanks,
