Hello,
is there any plan to support svn:externals in git-svn with git- 
submodules?  If yes, where can we see the on-going work?  If no, is  
anyone already planning to implement this?  If no, has anyone  
anything to say about the idea?  I could give it a try as I really  
need this feature to properly interoperate with SVN repositories.   
Many of my friends and co-workers also need it.

Cheers,

I hope to support it at some point, but some point could be anywhere
from days to months away depending on other things I'm working on...

I've barely looked at git-submodules myself.  To my knowledge there's no
on-going work for it.
