I have added information about git-subtree to git wiki on
http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/InterfacesFrontendsAndTools (which page I
imagined to be clearinghouse / list of relevant git related tools).
Please correct any mistakes, and perhaps expand information there.

You might want to add SubtreeMerge page to git wiki, and link it
from subproject pages (SubmoduleSupport, GitSubmoduleTutorial)
and perhaps also from GitDocumentation. But it is not necessary.
