I don't mind if I don't have to maintain additional tracking revisions. If you check out all Repos once, you can easily do common work scripted across them, don't think a shared Repo root would help with that, but of course there is nothing speaking against it if you prefer that.

I’m a +/0 here. I’ve always had a headache in dealing with this mechanism of dependency managment. I would think we’d do better to rely on on the default dependency management system of the language (e.g. maven). That said, when there is no other mechanism (maybe with C++), then submodules can be acceptable. But they are hard to manage for folks that aren’t particularly adept at git. If it is for C, our expectation of our contributers is that they be quite good, so in that case it is indeed ok.
