Say I have a repo "super" that has one submodule "sub1" in the folder "sub" and a clone "super2". Now I remove the submodule in "super2" and add another one ("sub2") again named "sub", commit this and push it. Now after pulling the commit to "super", I need to run git submodule sync and then git submodule update.

I used the test script at the end (just a testification of your
attachment) to bisect this to the following commit:
commit 501770e1bb5d132ae4f79aa96715f07f6b84e1f6

Move git-dir for submodules
Move git-dir for submodules into $GIT_DIR/modules/[name_of_submodule] of
the superproject. This is a step towards being able to delete submodule
directories without loosing the information from their .git directory
as that is now stored outside the submodules work tree.
This is done relying on the already existent .git-file functionality.
When adding or updating a submodule whose git directory is found under
$GIT_DIR/modules/[name_of_submodule], don't clone it again but simply
point the .git-file to it and remove the now stale index file from it.
The index will be recreated by the following checkout.
This patch will not affect already cloned submodules at all.
Tests that rely on .git being a directory have been fixed.

That is, before 501770 I get sub1/sub2 as Manuel said above. After
501770 I get sub1/sub1 (!). I have not been able to reproduce the
sub2/sub2 behavior with any version I tried (1.7.0, 1.7.3.4, 1.7.6,
etc.). Perhaps there is a configuration setting that changes this?
In any case, since it's -rc4 time and 501770 is set to go into the
release, it would be nice if you could check whether this is indeed
correct/intended.
