:). Sounds good. If I remember correctly Coreutils has instructions on
how to update Gnulib in README-hacking. I always use that since I never
use git submodules. Not sure if it mentions ./bootstrap --bootstrap-sync
though.

That most likely works fine too. The build-aux/bootstrap script is
autogenerated from some files in top/* in Gnulib's Makefile. Packages
can copy all of the files from top/* into their sources or alternatively
just the single build-aux/bootstrap script.
The --bootstrap-sync option should work correctly in either of those
cases so I suppose there is less work if you decide to reorganize
things.
