What kind of submodule conflicts arise? I remember a recent bugfix with apparent submodules, which were not touched. https://public-inbox.org/git/CABPp-BHDrw_dAESic3xK7kC3jMgKeNQuPQF69OpbVYhRkbhJsw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://github.com/git/git/commit/c641ca67072946f95f87e7b21f13f3d4e73701e3 which is included in 2.16.1 But this is me taking a wild guess, can you say more about your use case and what the actual problem is (and what the expected behavior is, favorably as a script) ?
