Has there been any talk about adding a stub for git subtrees in .git/config?
The primary benefits would be:
1. Determine what sub directories of the project were at one time
pulled from another repo (where from and which commit id), without
having to attempt to infer this by scanning the log.
2.

I do not think so, and that is probably for a good reason.
A subtree biding can change over time, but .git/config is about
recording information that do not change depending
A subtree biding can change over time, but .git/config is about
recording information that do not change depending on what tree you
are looking at, so there is an impedance mismatch---storing that
information in .git/config is probably a wrong way to go about it.
I see. How about a .gitsubtrees
by per folder I meant, for each subtree
