digitalmars.D.learn - Need advice on using DUB registry

reply Eric <eric makechip.com> writes:
I'm planning on some day putting a package in the DUB registry.  
My package
is dependent on my "util" package which is a collection of stuff 
I use across
all my projects.  Does this mean I also have to put my util 
package in the DUB registry?
Could I just make "util" a git sub module of the package I want 
to release?

Dub can't use git submodules. In fact it doesn't know anything about git!

So is the answer to my question, "yes, you need to put your util package in the DUB registry also?"

You can clone git submodules using preBuildCommands in dub.sdl. Also you can use add-local and add this package to dub locally (but of course it won't work for others). And the finally put your package to dub registry. I do all of them depending on the situation.
