Apart from this I have reviewed the patch and found it a faithful conversion. I am not an expert in the diff area and wonder how the cmd_diff_files functionality is achieved with just a stat call and then comparing it to ce_match_stat. 'Using "dirty" ignores all changes to the work tree of submodules, only changes to the commits stored in the superproject are shown.' So I'd have expected ce->oid to be compared (is there an index entry differing, i.e. more than one stage?) > Also, the child_process running the command 'rev-parse --verify HEAD' > is removed for optimization reasons, and instead head_ref_submodule() > is used with callback function handle_submodule_head_ref(). Cool.
