There is also a side effect in that the submodule now needs to pass all
the checks done by repo_init() instead of merely having  the "objects/"
directory. Can you add information about this to the commit message?

Also, which tests exercise this functionality? Mention them in the
commit message.

You seem to say here [1] that we don't need submodule_prefix, but you're
instead setting it twice? :-)

Location of the submodule git directory is done by the caller of this
function, not by this function. Also this function doesn't create any
repository handles. The documentation probably needs to be updated. Also
mention what happens if sub is NULL.

Handling of the subrepo and *sub seems clumsy - it might be better to
just let open_submodule() return a struct repository pointer.

Previous 17 patches look good - most are the same as the previous
version, which I already was happy with, and I see that the patch I
requested in [2] was added.
