I'm testing out a function that does exactly what these lines do, i.e.
create a superproject commit containing a submodule change containing a
deepsubmodule change. That works pretty well and it makes sense in the
context of the tests.

We can avoid the "git fetch" if we first need to fix an inconsistency in
how the submodules are set up. Right now, we have:
test_expect_success setup '
mkdir deepsubmodule &&
[...]
mkdir submodule &&
(
[...]
git submodule add "$pwd/deepsubmodule" subdir/deepsubmodule &&
git commit -a -m new &&
git branch -M sub
) &&
git submodule add "$pwd/submodule" submodule &&
[...]
(
cd downstream &&
git submodule update --init --recursive
)
'
resulting in a directory structure like:
$pwd
|_submodule
|_subdir
|_deepsubmodule
|_deepsubmodule
and upstream/downstream dependencies like:
upstream downstream
-------- ----------
$pwd/deepsubmodule $pwd/downstream/submodule/subdir/deepsubmodule (SUT)
$pwd/submodule/subdir/deepsubmodule
So we can't create the commit in submodule/subdir/deepsubmodule, because
that's not where our SUT would fetch from.
Instead, we could fix this by having a more consistent
upstream/downstream structure:
$pwd
|_submodule
|_subdir
|_deepsubmodule
upstream downstream
-------- ----------
$pwd/submodule/subdir/deepsubmodule $pwd/downstream/submodule/subdir/deepsubmodule (SUT)
This seems more convenient to test, but before I commit to this, is
there a downside to this that I'm not seeing?
