- fetch: return when parsing submodule.recurse
A config parser callback function fell through instead of returning
after recognising and processing a variable, wasting cycles, which
has been corrected.
Will merge to 'next'.

Isn't this an example of a prefix collision, i.e. "ds/" points
to two different contributors?
"ls .git/objects/" would tell you that no object is important enough
to squat on a single "prefix" and exclude others, and two objects in
00/ hierarchy are by no means closer together than an object in 00/
hierarchy and another object in 01/ hiearchy. The idea to use the
fan-out in the ref namespace is pretty much the same.
Ah, sorry, I wasn't precise enough, please let me explain. When
I wrote "prefix", I had its use by humans in mind, e.g. for searching
the "what's cooking" emails by hand, to see the statuses of one's
patches. I mean, that's what I do -- by searching for "ds/", I can
easily find the statuses of my patches in "what's cooking" emails.
Does that make sense?
