Yes, in that light, it makes acutally sense to exclude externals from the commit by default, so the user has to explicitly select them for commit. In our use case, the imported subtrees are expected to be relatively stable, so I think this is not so far from your typical use case. I'll go the way of excluding externals from the commit by default, and forbid commits that include objects of different "externality". This solution is explainable to the users, and it is implementable on my side. Regards, Markus Schaber
