From: Jacob Keller <jacob.keller@xxxxxxxxx> When --reference or --depth are unused, the current git-submodule.sh results in empty "" arguments appended to the end of the argv array inside git submodule--helper clone. This is not caught because the argc count is not checked today. Fix git-submodule.sh to only pass an argument when --reference or --depth are used, preventing the addition of two empty string arguments on the tail of the argv array.
