The commits in the individual sub-projects are not "globally" atomic, of
course, but you don't care; because in your *local* clones they are
atomic (assuming you don't do intervening unrelated commits). Once
you've completed these commits in the sub-projects, you make also a
commit in (your local clone of) the superproject. This finally gives you
the atomicity that you want.
