Support submodules lazily #172

Description

@bycruz

Currently clone a package in this order of preference:

  1. Download tarball
  2. Shallow clone with git

Could add a second step after both of these that checks if a .gitmodules is present, and then patch in the modules after the fact
So you'd keep the performance (+1 single fs check) of previous methods while still supporting submodules
