I've been trying to clean out the pull requests for the boost super-project and I ran into this one https://github.com/boostorg/boost/pull/33. And I don't really know if it makes sense, as I have personally not done a fork of the super-project.
Is it a real problem? Should we change all the sub-project references? If yes, what are the likely impacts on others and existing release processes?
This issue annoyed me when I forked the super project. I'm slightly surprised that the proposed fix works, but if it does, then it seems reasonable and unlikely to break anything that was previously working...
There's no need to change the submodule paths, all you have to do is set the super-project's origin to point to boostorg/boost. The pull request will prevent anyone from using a different location for the submodules.
