I think that this part has the only difference since the previous
round, but I am puzzled about it.  Everything else looks as good as
the previous round was.

I did not (and I do not) mind the block for the body of this if
statement.  Even though technically a single switch() statement
makes a single statement block that does not need {} around, it is
large enough that extra {} around (which you had in the previous
round) may make it clear where the body begins and ends.

But do we really need the extra block _inside_ the switch statement?
IOW I would have expected to see this instead:

		switch (recurse_submodules_cli) {
		case RECURSE_SUBMODULES_OFF:
		case RECURSE_SUBMODULES_DEFAULT:
			/*
			 * --negotiate-only should never recurse into
			 * submodules. Skip it by setting recurse_submodules to
			 * RECURSE_SUBMODULES_OFF.
			 */
			recurse_submodules = RECURSE_SUBMODULES_OFF;
			break;
		default:
			die(_("--negotiate-only and --recurse-submodules cannot be used together"));
		}

Thanks.
