Yup, thanks.

I actually was envisioning something like this instead, though.

That way, a user can say "git submodule init/update" it to use it,
and deinit it to use the frozen version.

But when somebody (like me?) feels strongly enough, such a change
can always come on top of this patch, so let's have this
manual-configuration-only version as our first step.

Thanks.
