I see. So ideally, people could be starting from scratch, and doing "git 
clone --recurse-submodules" would bring in everything needed for build.

Now, what happens when a project in a submodule moves in a direction 
that LilyPond can't immediately follow? Guile after 1.8 for example. Is 
there a way to keep the submodule at prior state of its repository?

Maybe this "branch" option would do that?
