If I'm changing 20 libraries, that's not practical.
That's going to be a problem no matter which route you take.
since a lot of people don't read threads that don't concern them. Incidentally, this should be easier to mange with git as we'll be able to use pull requests.
I don't see what git has to do with it. The modularization I'm trying to do is much much easier now, before migration to mulitple modularized git repos. I have a git-svn checkout. That means I can use git grep. When using modularized git repos I have to write a much more awkward git submodule foreach with a || true at the end.
Because each pull request can be tracked in github, which will reduce the administrative burden. It'll also be easier to make the changes on a branch so that you don't disrupt other people's work. And of course merging should be better. When I said it would be easier to manage, I wasn't talking about the initial changes.
