Jens Lehmann	88a21979c5	fetch/pull: recurse into submodules when necessary To be able to access all commits of populated submodules referenced by the superproject it is sufficient to only then let "git fetch" recurse into a submodule when the new commits fetched in the superproject record new commits for it. Having these commits present is extremely useful when using the "--submodule" option to "git diff" (which is what "git gui" and "gitk" do since 1.6.6), as all submodule commits needed for creating a descriptive output can be accessed. Also merging submodule commits (added in 1.7.3) depends on the submodule commits in question being present to work. Last but not least this enables disconnected operation when using submodules, as all commits necessary for a successful "git submodule update -N" will have been fetched automatically. So we choose this mode as the default for fetch and pull. Before a new or changed ref from upstream is updated in update_local_ref() "git rev-list <new-sha1> --not --branches --remotes" is used to determine all newly fetched commits. These are then walked and diffed against their parent(s) to see if a submodule has been changed. If that is the case, its path is stored to be fetched after the superproject fetch is completed. Using the "--recurse-submodules" or the "--no-recurse-submodules" option disables the examination of the fetched refs because the result will be ignored anyway. There is currently no infrastructure for storing deleted and new submodules in the .git directory of the superproject. That's why fetch and pull for now only fetch submodules that are already checked out and are not renamed. In t7403 the "--no-recurse-submodules" argument had to be added to "git pull" to avoid failure because of the moved upstream submodule repo.

Andreas Köhler	33f072f891	submodule sync: Update "submodule.<name>.url" for empty directories If a submodule directory has not been filled by "git submodule update" yet, then "git submodule sync" must still update the super-project's configuration for submodule.<name>.url. This situation occurs when switching between branches with a module from different urls and other branches without the submodule.

David Aguilar	0b9dca434f	submodule sync: Update "submodule.<name>.url" When "git submodule sync" synchronizes the repository URLs it only updates submodules' .git/config. However, the old URLs still exist in the super-project's .git/config. Update the super-project's configuration so that commands such as "git submodule update" use the URLs from .gitmodules.

David Aguilar	52e8370bc7	tests: add a testcase for "git submodule sync" This testcase ensures that upstream changes to submodule properties can be updated using the sync subcommand. This particular test changes the submodule URL upstream and uses the sync command to update an existing checkout. Signed-off-by: David Aguilar <davvid@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Shawn O.
