I must be missing something. Why not just work through the python subprocess interface? As Dave points out, the git interaction is really simple, so isn't the subprocess approach sufficient?
It's not sufficient.. As I can't rewrite the subrepo references to use

We can fix that on our end of course.
Sure you can; Just git clone non-recursively and then edit the .gitmodules file.
But then I have even more code that is managing a file I don't really want to manage.
As opposed to now where I have about 150 lines of easy to read portable python code that does all the subrepo stuff while limiting the clone/pull/checkout to only the tested branch. And hence at least saving some disk space.
If you're trying to save disk, you could try using a shallow clone(?) -- Dave Abrahams
