git submodules are always the wrong solution. Yes, even the to the problem they were specifically invented to solve.

• Use git subtree
• Just have a monorepo
• Use a package management system, and explicit dependencies
• Use the multiple repository tool mr
• Have your build expect to find the dependency in .., its parent dir
• Provide an ad-hoc in-tree script to download the dependency
