How to tell Travis to skip pulling all git submodules in?

Question

In my project I have a few git submodules, however those aren't actual build dependencies and do take some extra time to get pulled in, literarily doubling or tripling the build time.

Is there any way of telling Travis to skip this useless step?

In case if somebody still looks for this, in .travis.yml:

git:
  submodules: false

At the moment not, please file an issue with travis-build.
