Hi, no alias - the command is used by TortoiseSVN, like in: git.exe pull --progress -v --no-rebase "origin" >From gitlab.ops.oce.net:nemmaiec/cpposatest = [up to date] master -> origin/master Already up to date. usage: git submodule [--quiet] [--cached] or: git submodule [--quiet] add [-b <branch>] [-f|--force] [--name <name>] [--reference <repository>] [--] <repository> [<path>] or: git submodule [--quiet] status [--cached] [--recursive] [--] [<path>...] or: git submodule [--quiet] init [--] [<path>...] or: git submodule [--quiet] deinit [-f|--force] (--all| [--] <path>...) or: git submodule [--quiet] update [--init [--filter=<filter-spec>]] [--remote] [-N|--no-fetch] [-f|--force] [--checkout|--merge|--rebase] [--[no-]recommend-shallow] [--reference <repository>] [--recursive] [--[no-]single-branch] [--] [<path>...] or: git submodule [--quiet] set-branch (--default|--branch <branch>) [--] <path> or: git submodule [--quiet] set-url [--] <path> <newurl> or: git submodule [--quiet] summary [--cached|--files] [--summary-limit <n>] [commit] [--] [<path>...] or: git submodule [--quiet] foreach [--recursive] <command> or: git submodule [--quiet] sync [--recursive] [--] [<path>...] or: git submodule [--quiet] absorbgitdirs [--] [<path>...] I verified that the -v parameter is the culprit. Today I also found out that this only happens if .gitconfig contains a [submodule] section setting "recurse = true". Meanwhile a colleague of mine stumbled over another problem that (he claims) was not there until he upgraded git: GitExtensions uses "--jobs=0", which does not work anymore. But, of course, that's obviously a GitExtensions problem, just never having showed up before.

Hi Christoph, I have gone back to git 2.36.0 and cannot find support for the -v submodule command parameter. At what version did this last work for you? Do you have a git alias in effect that might be adding -v? --Randall
