Glad to help :).

I think “proper careful mirror” is a bit alarmist ;).  If it's just a
single level of submodules (and it's currently just a single
`components` submodule), all you have to do is mirror the submodules
at the same place.  For me:

  $ cd /var/git
  $ git clone git://github.com/ipython/ipython.git
  $ git clone git://github.com/ipython/ipython-components.git

Working mirror complete ;).

Cheers,
Trevor
