When a submodule is renamed, git log gives incorrect output: commit 350ebece9bce8d9c495f9a51e6f5529749c5c3cc (HEAD -> master) Author: David Turner <novalis@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Jan 2 17:09:56 2019 -0500 move diff --git a/.gitmodules b/.gitmodules index da1a767..f4baf2a 100644 --- a/.gitmodules +++ b/.gitmodules @@ -1,3 +1,3 @@ -[submodule "mymod"] - path = mymod +[submodule "morx"] + path = morx url = ../sub Submodule mymod 86da4a4...86da4a4 (commits not present) ^-- I expect this last line to tell me that the submodule has been renamed, rather than that it has changed SHA to the same SHA. See the attached shell script for a demo of this. I tested with b21ebb671bb as well as 2.18 and 2.19. Thanks to Adam Bliss <abliss@xxxxxxxxxxxx> for helping to figure out the reproduction steps.
