Is there any way to say "at this specific revision?"
One of the nice things IMO about git's submodules is they make you  
explicitly say what revision you want to depend on, rather than just  
floating along whatever tip happens to be. And, given the  
interchangeable nature of tags and revisions, if people really do want  
to track tip, they can ask for that. I've had my own share  of  
problems with svn externals when (for example) builds silently break  
because upstream changed their code and I didn't use a peg rev in my  
external.
