I am a little puzzled with what to do with this series. For one, it
doesn't seem to apply cleanly on top of 'ab/remove--super-prefix':
$ git log --oneline -1
04e36effde (HEAD -> ab/remove--super-prefix) Merge branch 'ab/submodule-helper-prep-only' into ab/remove--super-prefix
$ git am -sc3 ~/patch
Applying: submodule--helper: don't use global --super-prefix in "absorbgitdirs"
error: sha1 information is lacking or useless (submodule.c).
error: could not build fake ancestor
Patch failed at 0001 submodule--helper: don't use global --super-prefix in "absorbgitdirs"
hint: Use 'git am --show-current-patch=diff' to see the failed patch
When you have resolved this problem, run "git am --continue".
If you prefer to skip this patch, run "git am --skip" instead.
To restore the original branch and stop patching, run "git am --abort".
But it would be nice to have a clearer path forward between this and
Glen's series. I understand that they are both still RFCs, but I am
counting on you two working together to find a path forward that is
satisfactory to you both.
In the meantime, it would be nice to have a version of this series that
I can apply to start playing around with.
Thanks,
Taylor
