In e0a862fdaf (submodule helper: convert relative URL to absolute URL if
needed, 2018-10-16), `prepare_to_clone_next_submodule()` lost the
ability to handle URL-less submodules, due to a change from:
if (repo_get_config_string_const(the_repostiory, sb.buf, &url))
url = sub->url;
to
if (repo_get_config_string_const(the_repostiory, sb.buf, &url)) {
if (starts_with_dot_slash(sub->url) ||
starts_with_dot_dot_slash(sub->url)) {
/* ... */
}
}
, which will segfault when `sub->url` is NULL, since both
`starts_with_dot_slash()` does not guard its arguments as non-NULL.
Guard the checks to both of the above functions by first checking
whether `sub->url` is non-NULL. There is no need to check whether `sub`
itself is NULL, since we already perform this check earlier in
`prepare_to_clone_next_submodule()`.
By adding a NULL-ness check on `sub->url`, we'll fall into the 'else'
branch, setting `url` to `sub->url` (which is NULL). Before attempting
to invoke `git submodule--helper clone`, check whether `url` is NULL,
and die() if it is.
