[PATCHv2 2/2] submodule: only preserve flags across recursive status/update invocations

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Recursive invocations of submodule update/status preserve all arguments
in the recursive invocation. This tends to cause undesired behavior when
those arguments include the name of a submodule, as it tries to recurse
into a nested submodule with the same name rather than recursing into all
child submodules of the named submodule.

This commit changes the argument preservation to only preserve flags.
When specifying a submodule name on the command-line, all child submodules
of that named submodule will be recursed into correctly, and it will not
attempt to recurse into a phantom nested submodule with the same name
as its parent.

I'm tempted to make this commit also omit the --reference flag in recursive
calls to cmd_update, as I don't believe it makes sense to use --reference
in conjunction with --recursive, but it may be a better idea to simply
produce an error if both flags are used together.
