Hello,

nice, now it works :)

then my question would be if the following workflow is possible or not:

1) you told me how to do the following:

a) somebody updates libfoo

b) a dev of main pulls libfoo, commits something like:

diff --git a/libfoo b/libfoo
index 07ceadb..459b61f 160000
--- a/libfoo
+++ b/libfoo
@@ -1 +1 @@
-Subproject commit 07ceadb17ca73636b0d96cb91688baecb1763d9b
+Subproject commit 459b61fa4bba78a6e6542b8fcc0fd8f320eafa8c

c) users have to "git pull; git submodule update" and they'll be happy

2) is it possible to do this without step b)?

i mean adding something like: "Subproject commit HEAD" or "Subproject
commit mybranch"

thanks,
