Description: A subrepository in version control systems is a repository that is integrated as a subdirectory within another main repository. This feature allows developers to manage complex projects that may consist of multiple modules or components, each of which can have its own lifecycle and version control. Subrepositories are particularly useful in situations where a project depends on other projects or libraries that are also under version control. By using subrepositories, developers can keep the project structure organized and facilitate collaboration among different teams or stakeholders. Additionally, subrepositories allow for the inclusion of specific versions of dependencies, helping to avoid compatibility issues and ensuring that the project works correctly with the versions of code that have been tested. This functionality is part of the flexibility that distributed version control systems offer, allowing users to efficiently manage both the main source code and its dependencies in a coherent and structured manner.
