Tell me if this comment sounds better: According to "Documentation/gitmodules.txt", 'checkout' is a valid 'submodule.<name>.update' mode. Also "git-submodule.sh" already refers to it and handles it correctly. Fix cmd_init() to also accept 'checkout' as valid update mode and add a similar validation in cmd_update(), issuing an error if the value read is unknown. -- 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
