ok, it's not independent in that sense that you can move the directory
away and expect the submodule to work even when the parent does not
exist any more.

But you can do normal GIT work as before.
You can create new branches (they will be stored in the parent
but you have to "git add .gitmodule/..." explicitly in order
to track the branch in the parent), fetch/pull from other sides,
create commits, etc.
So in your normal workflow you do not have to do anything in the
parent while you work in the submodule.  That's what I've called
"independent".

I hope the intention is clear now, perhaps I've been sloppy
with words.
