Sorry, you've lost me here. How is 'git submodule update' going to
avoid cloning/fetching all submodules with your proposal?

PS: the supposed work-flow is an initial 'git submodule init foo bar
baz' (i.e. register the submodules you're interested in checking out)
followed by an occasional 'git submodule update' (i.e. update all the
submodules you are interested in).
