The question is, can I commit using one transaction acros multiple
subprojects?
No. Your subprojects may be hosted in different locations using
different protocols, etc...
More importantly, if you want arrange stuff into subprojects, you
should treat them as independent things. To use your example, if you
make an incompatible change to a library in a configed project and
update the portion of the project that uses that library, you might be
tempted to commit them atomically, but you have to consider all of the
other users of the library that weren't even part of that project.
In that case, I think it makes sense to change the library, and then
change the users of the library.
