I'm not sure I understand your setup, do you want to configure that for each remote or for each submodule? Because you can already do the latter with my patches. And configuring that via .gitmodules has the advantage that every clone inherits that setting instead of having to set the options for the remote again after each clone. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
