Clarifying the docs is a good solution given that a possibly large
number of existing repositories are dependent on the current behavior.

One way of explaining it is to say that "git first appends a
'/' to the superproject's origin URL if that URL does not already
end in a '/'. Relative URLs for submodules' origin repository are
resolved relative to this modified URL." Then the reader can simply
apply the normal URL rules.

I think either is OK - it's simply a judgment call as to which 
explanation is easiest for a typical git user to understand.
