OK,

  That's what you have to do. Just set up the script and do it on a
per-directory basis. Can't we set up some top-level branch in the GIT tree that
holds the v3.5.13-sru info so users can just do a single checkout and have it
setup 3.5.13-sru? Here is what I will do:

17:53 providence:/mnt/pv/home/david/tde13/tde/main/applications/amarok> git
checkout v3.5.13-sru
M       admin
M       cmake
Branch v3.5.13-sru set up to track remote branch v3.5.13-sru from origin.
Switched to a new branch 'v3.5.13-sru'

17:54 providence:/mnt/pv/home/david/tde13/tde/main/applications/amarok> git pull
Already up-to-date.

17:54 providence:/mnt/pv/home/david/tde13/tde/main/applications/amarok> git
submodule update
Submodule path 'admin': checked out 'e4edddce0ad20cd639e6ea1b21bb3bb6b0a3a3d9'
Submodule path 'cmake': checked out '8552bcafcd974f7303bb3cc4947b30a7ce0533f9'
