Official git mirror?

Hi,

Is there a git mirror of the library that's suitable for use as a submodule? A quick search turned up a number of them on github, but they all appear to be out of date. Is there a particular one that's maintained well enough to be used?

Thanks

There's not a official mirror. Perhaps git-svn will meet your needs.

Unfortunately git-svn can't be used for submodules. I could use it to set up yet another mirror, and use that as a submodule, but that seems less than good.

And apparently it can't pull in svn:externals either. Any thoughts on how to handle this?

The easiest trick might be to copy the externals into the mirror, but that makes it harder to keep up with any changes to those projects. Another option is to make mirrors for each of the externals, but then I'm stuck maintaining 4 separate repositories just to use this one library.

Git is popular enough that someone has to have figured this out by now...right? right?
