Subject: [PATCH v2] add test for bug in git-mv for recursive submodules
Date: Fri, 15 Sep 2017 13:50:21 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170915115021.GB76244@book.hvoigt.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <CAGZ79kYNLo_3PfLTOE5wusTs6wgFXZLVH+qNZ-ovxGguhinHLg@mail.gmail.com>

When using git-mv with a submodule it will detect that and update the
paths for its configurations (.gitmodules, worktree and gitfile). This
does not work for recursive submodules where a user renames the root
submodule.

We discovered this fact when working on on-demand fetch for renamed
submodules. Lets add a test to document.

Took a little while but here is a more clean patch creating individual
submodules for the nesting.

Cheers Heiko
