Git submodule from just a directory of another repository
Question
Is it possible to create a submodule that does not link to a repository directly, but to a directory inside it?
For example, let fw.git be a framework repository, with these dirs:
|fw.git
\---|test
|code
|tools
I'd like to submodule the framework code, just the code directory, not other directories.

No, it's not possible. Linus intentionally made git not work like that.
