I'm fairly new to git and am trying to determine if git subtree would be 
helpful for managing our company's codebase, which has several repos some 
of which depend on each other. All the examples I've seen make sense to me 
as a one-time operation to merge separate repos into one monolithic one or 
to split one monolithic repo into separate repos. I'm having a harder time 
understanding how this fits into a larger picture and what the workflow for 
working with subtree would be.

If I have a bunch of repos on GitHub and some depend on each other, how 
would I set them up to work with subtree? Would GitHub continue to host 
them as is, host a merged monolithic repo, or host both a monolithic repo 
and the splitted out repo? The exact answer probably varies, but I imagine 
there's basic workflow that would satisfy 80% of users.  If I have GitHub 
host both monolithic and splitted out repos, it seems unclear as to how I 
keep those repos in sync and make sure all the developers in our company 
push their changes to both repos.

Thanks,
Ben
