Well... submodules didn't seem to fit the job, because it seems that the
sources of only one submodule at a time can be checked out.
And in my case, I would need to have the sources of all submodules
simultaneously.
I was talking about subtrees, because I thought it could be a better
tool for this job (and it had the reputation of being less cumbersome
than submodules).

Maybe such a job cannot be done with pure git commands.
Thanks for pointing me this "git-repo" script tool... the description
seems to fit my needs!
I will test it, and hope it will work on Windows (project is
unfortunately very Windows-oriented, for the time being).

Thanks for you help!

Andreas THILLOSEN.
