Poxy doesn't update submodule(s)

See original GitHub issue

We should consider adding git submodule update --recursive --init to setup.py otherwise users might get an unexpected surprise

So the solution I went with was to add another ‘hidden’ developer command --update_mcss <path>, the idea being that instead of the copying and file fitering happening during setup.py every release, it’s done as necessary when iterating on anything m.css related. I’ll write up some better notes at some point soon (the elusive CONTRIBUTING.md)

Nah it’s alright, I’m currently working on a much more kill-a-fly-with-a-sledgehammer solution 😃
