+Hi,
+
+First, thanks for the great tool that is git-annex!
+
+I have a problem with submodules when the git repository is not a submodule everywhere.
+
+    $ git-annex version
+    git-annex version: 4.20130802
+    ...
+
+    $ git --version
+    git version 1.8.3.2
+
+I try to have a repository has a submodule of another.
+
+    # creating the master repository
+    mkdir annex_master
+    cd annex_master/
+    git init
+    # hack: adding a file to create the master branch
+    touch start
+    git add start
+    git commit -m \"start\"
+    cd ..
+    # create another repository
+    mkdir annex_sub
+    cd annex_sub/
+    git init
+    # hack: adding a file to create the master branch
+    touch start
+    git add start
+    git commit -m \"start\"
+    # it is a annexed repository
+    git annex init sub
+    # add the other repository as submodule of the master one
+    cd ../annex_master/
+    git submodule add ../annex_sub/ module
+    cd module/
+    git annex init sub_module
+    git annex sync origin
+    # add an annexed file
+    echo test > test
+    git annex add
+    git annex sync
+    # go back to the origin repository
+    cd ../../annex_sub/
+    git annex sync
+    ls -l
+
+This returns
+test -> ../.git/modules/module/annex/objects/w8/pv/SHA256E-s5--f2ca1bb6c7e907d06dafe4687e579fce76b37e4e93b7605022da52e6ccc26fd2/SHA256E-s5--f2ca1bb6c7e907d06dafe4687e579fce76b37e4e93b7605022da52e6ccc26fd2
+
+Actually, the file committed is correct. But the fact it points to '../.git/modules/module/...' makes the link work only if the repository is also a submodule and if this submodule is also located in the modules folder in the parent git repository.
+
+I would expect, since this repository is not an annex:
+test -> .git/annex/objects/w8/pv/SHA256E-s5--f2ca1bb6c7e907d06dafe4687e579fce76b37e4e93b7605022da52e6ccc26fd2/SHA256E-s5--f2ca1bb6c7e907d06dafe4687e579fce76b37e4e93b7605022da52e6ccc26fd2
+
+Do you think that is possible?
+
+Thanks.
