Sharing same git submodule for both project

So i've a 3 project A, B and C

Project A is the core library Project B is an extension of A (so project A is requiered to work) Project C is an application build with project A & B

Project A
|            |
|            |
|        Project B
|            |
|            |
Project C

My projects setup are like this

ProjectA/srcs/

ProjectB/lib/ProjectA (submodule)
ProjectB/srcs/

ProjectC/lib/ProjectA (submodule)
ProjectC/lib/ProjectB (submodule)
ProjectC/lib/ProjectB/lib/ProjectA (submodule)
ProjectC/srcs

How can i use the same ProjectA (bold) submodule in ProjectC without modifying ProjectB ?

Thanks for your help

I would use symlinks to achieve the goal.

That is if ProjectC needs the same version of ProjectA as ProjectB make

ProjectC/lib/ProjectA to be a symlink to ../ProjectB/lib/ProjectA
