Moreover, submodules also support allowing different branches of IoTDB to track corresponding branches of TsFile. For example, the master branch of IoTDB can refer to the master branch of TsFile, and the rel/1.3 branch of IoTDB can refer to the rel/1.3 branch of TsFile. When switching branches in the IoTDB repository, the TsFile branch will also switch accordingly. We can even have IoTDB directly reference a specific fixed commit of TsFile to ensure the stability of a branch that is no longer being updated. I believe this approach makes management more convenient and flexible.
