Subject: [PATCH v2 1/1] doc: Document 'git submodule status --cached'
Date: Sat, 23 Nov 2019 05:54:28 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3168924c3c6f12a293b25a00f333a55d4b8fa3a9.1574488468.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.470.v2.git.1574488468.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>

From: Manish Goregaokar <manishsmail@gmail.com>

'git submodule status --cached' reports the SHAs expected by the parent project,
instead of the SHAs that are actually checked out in the submodule.

 If `--recursive` is specified, this command will recurse into nested
