From: =?UTF-8?q?SZEDER=20G=C3=A1bor?= <szeder.dev@xxxxxxxxx> Submodules should be handled the same as regular directories with respect to the presence of a trailing slash, i.e. commands like: git diff rev1 rev2 -- $path git rev-list HEAD -- $path should produce the same output whether $path is 'submod' or 'submod/'. This has been fixed in commit 74b4f7f277 (tree-walk.c: ignore trailing slash on submodule in tree_entry_interesting(), 2014-01-23). Unfortunately, that commit had the unintended side effect to handle 'submod/anything' the same as 'submod' and 'submod/' as well, e.g.: $ git log --oneline --name-only -- sha1collisiondetection/whatever 4125f78222 sha1dc: update from upstream sha1collisiondetection 07a20f569b Makefile: fix unaligned loads in sha1dc with UBSan sha1collisiondetection 23e37f8e9d sha1dc: update from upstream sha1collisiondetection 86cfd61e6b sha1dc: optionally use sha1collisiondetection as a submodule sha1collisiondetection Fix this by rejecting submodules as partial pathnames when their trailing slash is followed by anything.
