Sry, I did not mention that I started with the submodule already initialized and checked out. IIRC I deinitialized the submodule with 'git submodule deinit -f sha1collisiondetection/' and ran 'git fetch' to see if it happens on the git repo, too, since I encountered the issue on another repo first. I can see the same misbehaviour when I run $ git -c submodule.recurse=false fetch --recurse-submodules too, so I think it doesn't have necessarily something to do with the 'submodule.recursive' config, but with 'recurse submodules' in general.
