Mental note.  This takes "value" that comes from the config API; the
pre-context in this hunk treats it as a transient piece of memory
and uses xstrdup() on it before storing it away in submodule->url.

This however uses skip_prefix() on value, making dst->command store
a pointer into that transient piece of memory.

That looks inconsistent, doesn't it?  I think this part should be

	else if (value[0] == '!') {
		dst->type = SM_UPDATE_COMMAND;
                dst->command = xstrdup(value + 1);
        }

or something like that.  I.e. dst->command should own the piece of
memory it points at, no?
