Hi,

I tested this on git version 2.9 and it still fails (exactly the same
behaviour as on the stackoverflow post; also the workarounded I posted
there still works).
Some output showing the bug follows below:


bartb@EB-Latitude-E5450 ~/Documents/papers $ git status
On branch master
Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/master'.
nothing to commit, working directory clean
bartb@EB-Latitude-E5450 ~/Documents/papers $ git --version
git version 2.9.0
bartb@EB-Latitude-E5450 ~/Documents/papers $ git mv fo-c-revisited/ 2016
bartb@EB-Latitude-E5450 ~/Documents/papers $ git status
fatal: Not a git repository:
idp-latex/../../.git/modules/fo-c-revisited/modules/idp-latex
fatal: 'git status --porcelain' failed in submodule 2016/fo-c-revisited
bartb@EB-Latitude-E5450 ~/Documents/papers $ rm
2016/fo-c-revisited/idp-latex/.git
bartb@EB-Latitude-E5450 ~/Documents/papers $ git submodule update
bartb@EB-Latitude-E5450 ~/Documents/papers $ git status
On branch master
Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/master'.
Changes to be committed:
  (use "git reset HEAD <file>..." to unstage)

modified:   .gitmodules
renamed:    fo-c-revisited -> 2016/fo-c-revisited
