Hi,

I would have liked to fork Boost to maintain my own version with my 
patches before they get merged in master.

I was considering using git for this, unfortunately I don't know how to 
make this happen with submodules.

Do I need to fork each submodule separately and to edit the .gitmodules 
file?
Is there a way to not have to do that by hand?
