➜  15:34:32 git:(master) git --version
git version 2.8.0

at the end of your gist.
The same happens when using 2.7.4, it doesn't happen when using 2.6.6 though.

It turns out ee8838d (2015-09-08, submodule: rewrite `module_clone`
shell function in C)
broke it.

I'll look into fixing it.

Thanks,
Stefan
