In f9ee2fcdfa (grep: recurse in-process using 'struct repository', 2017-08-02), we introduced a call to repo_read_gitmodules in builtin/grep to simplify the submodule handling. After ff6f1f564c4 (submodule-config: lazy-load a repository's .gitmodules file, 2017-08-03) this is no longer necessary, but that commit did not cleanup the whole tree, but just show cased the new way how to deal with submodules in ls-files. Cleanup the only remaining caller to repo_read_gitmodules outside of submodule.c Signed-off-by: Stefan Beller <sbeller@xxxxxxxxxx> --- Antonio Ospite writes: > BTW, with Stefan Beller we also identified some unneeded code which > could have been removed to alleviate the issue, but that would not have > solved it completely; so, I am not removing the unnecessary call to > repo_read_gitmodules() builtin/grep.c in this series, possibly this can > become a stand-alone change. Here is the stand-alone change. The patch [1] contains the lines as deleted below in the context lines but they would not conflict as there is one empty line between the changes in this patch in [1].
