This is a last resort; consult with the rest of the dev group
before taking this radical step.
+:Q: What about submodules?
+
+:A: pdf.js is supplied as a submodule, and other software may use that too,
+ to add a new submodule:
+ git submodule add <git-repo-of-fun-project> extlib/fun-project
+
+ Use it just like a snapshotted extlib directory. When a new clone of mediagoblin
+ is made you need to run
+
+ git submodule init
+ git submodule update
+
+ As noted in HackingHowto
Thanks
