Currently when git-fetch is asked to recurse into submodules, it dispatches
a plain "git-fetch -C <submodule-dir>" (with some submodule related options
such as prefix and recusing strategy, but) without any information of the
remote or the tip that should be fetched.
This works surprisingly well in some workflows (such as using submodules
as a third party library), while not so well in other scenarios, such
as in a Gerrit topic-based workflow, that can tie together changes
(potentially across repositories) on the server side. One of the parts
of such a Gerrit workflow is to download a change when wanting to examine
it, and you'd want to have its submodule changes that are in the same
topic downloaded as well. However these submodule changes reside in their
own repository in their own ref (refs/changes/<int>).
Retry fetching a submodule by object name if the object id that the
superproject points to, cannot be found.
This retrying does not happen when the "git fetch" done at the
superproject is not storing the fetched results in remote
tracking branches (i.e. instead just recording them to
FETCH_HEAD) in this step. A later patch will fix this.
builtin/fetch used to only inspect submodules when they were fetched
"on-demand", as in either on/off case it was clear whether the submodule
needs to be fetched. However to know whether we need to try fetching the
object ids, we need to identify the object names, which is done in this
function check_for_new_submodule_commits(), so we'll also run that code
in case the submodule recursion is set to "on".
