Andrew Christianson commented on MINIFI-213:
--------------------------------------------

Have we considered using git submodules for this? It would free us from having 
to hold copies of all the third-party code, yet would enable a full recursive 
clone for embedded or offline compiling. It also simplifies maintenance when it 
comes to updating third-party dependencies (i.e. update the submodule reference 
to a new upstream tag/commit), although it would add some complexity in other 
cases. Something to consider.

> Could we move the libs in thirdparty to ExternalProject inclusions that 
> download the dependencies? Would this cause an impact to any users?
