Indeed, integration is another good strategy. I mainly use submodules as a convenience because it is a frequent (though not regular) occurrence that we want to change multiple libraries at the same time. Plus it provides a convenient way for developers to check out "the project."

Again, it depends on the development practice and individual situations. :)
