(I hope this isn't considered "advanced" git.) So I just recently found out about worktrees, that let you have two different working trees from the same repository. (NB: Originally, I thought I had learned that git only supported one work tree per repository, but had a special "hardlink" to let two repositories share disk space on the same drive -- did I misunderstand something?).
Now, there's submodules, and subtrees. I'd like a bit of an explanation here. A submodule is at least at first simple enough: you have a subproject with it's own history. But that's about all I understand about it. I can't tell if there's any way to convert a sub directory of a project into a submodule, or visa-versa, or if it is a "lifetime" choice. And the man page on submodules talks about a "subtree merge strategy", and I'm not sure I've even heard that before. So: Help? Please?
