I don't quite understand the question. OpenBIOS is still using SVN
AFAIK. QEMU is using Git, so I thought we always need a Git mirror for
submodules? Has the git-svn integration been extended to svn submodules
and which versions of git support that?

Unless I'm missing something, the only question is which mirror do we
use, not whether we use a mirror.
