Does it support submodules yet? That was the thing that stopped me using it last time I checked.

Submodules are cursed. I feel bad for you that you have to work in a repo that uses them.

What is the problem with submodules? I like to use them because it means the code I need from another repo remains the same until I update it. No unexpected breaking changes.

Using a package manager to share code between repos has worked far better for me than submodules.
This comment sums up the issues better than I could:

Not natively, but you can still use the regular git commands to update them, and it works.
