This series improves handling by 'git submodule' of relative superproject origin URLs.
Currently, 'git submodule':
* incorrectly configures origin URL for submodules with a path that is relative to
the work tree of the superproject when the configured path needs to be relative
to the work tree of the submodule
* unnecessarily fails with an error if the superproject origin URL is of the form: foo
This series corrects these problems for paths like the following:
foo
foo/bar
./foo
./foo/bar
../foo
../foo/bar
It does not change current behaviour for URLs that begin with a leading '/' or contain
a ':' as such URLs are deemed to be absolute URLs for which no correction is required.
In addition, this series ensures that relative URLs configured by git submodule do
not include a superfluous leading or embedded './'.
This series differs from v7 by removing the patches dealing incorrect handling
of greedy submodule URLs (those with too many leading ../'s) and those that deal
with improperly normalized superproject origin URLs. These patches may resubmitted
at a later date.
This series differs from v8 by fixing the indentation of case branches, using
a sed idiom that avoids a Solaris sed bug, and reverts the name of the
'module_url' variable used by cmd_sync() to 'url'. The commentary for
resolve_relative_url is adjusted slightly to remove the implication that the
first argument is always a relative URL.
