Re: Re: Git issues with submodules

Heiko, yeah sure see what you mean. Changing existing behavior is pretty PITA.

Just one more question for now, are you referencing to the patch "[RFC
PATCH] disable complete ignorance of submodules for index <-> HEAD
diff"? Coz i tested it and seems it doesn't change behavior of
add/commit.

Also, i'm around to test the all patches which are related on submodules :)
