This effectively overrides that file, right? https://github.com/coreutils/coreutils/blob/master/.gitmodules

nope, it adds

[submodule "gnulib"]

We should leave a comment or something to explain why this replacement is a good idea. Sure, today github.com seems to be vastly faster and more reliable than savannah.gnu.org, but when that changes (or if anyone reads the code) it would be nice to be told why we substitute a different repository (even if it should contain the same stuff).
