If the external refers to something that is a repository in entirety, then 
it's ok to keep it as a git-submodule link.

If it's referring to something inside a repository, git submodule cannot 
represent it. Therefore, options are:

1) request the feature from git (this includes a partial-tree checkout too)
or
2) make the target *be* a repository on its own and use submodules in both 
places
or
3) drop the link entirely
