Tim was talking about that media/ folder and managing that in git. If you w=
ant=20
to work on the media, you might end up getting hundreds of gigabytes of dat=

to get that folder, even if you only need to change one single file.

That's the issue we're running into, and I don't thing submodules solve thi=

at all.
