It might be nice to have a top-level script that checks out the tags for each submodule for a given top-level release.

I just found that it is not possible to issue this command at the top-level:

make install.linux-x86

That is a bit of a pain.  I can use the -j option on linux-x86 and win32-x86-mingw-static, but not with win32-x86-mingw.  I am cross-compiling the mingw builds.  So I would like to run the first 2 architectures with -j and then the third architecture without -j.  But I cannot do that.

Thanks,
Mark

You may be able to say
    git submodule update
but I'm not sure if that always works. You can do
    git submodule status
and you'll get a list of the states of the submodules and compare them with the contents of the documentation/git-versions file to be sure, but you might have to go into any submodule that is not correctly checked out and do a
    git checkout 4.2.2
or similar depending on the tag to fix it.
