I discovered that Google have this tool called "repo" which is their darcs-all for the Android source tree. That might be worth looking at as an alternative in the future:

If we go with git, I suggest we stick with sync-all for the time being and think about either submodules or repo as possibilities for the future.
The author of Gerrit/Repo has stated that he intends to have better integration between repo and git submodules, but so far he hasn't been putting all that much effort into it. If that were completed, repo would just be a much better way of managing submodules. David
