When we run "git submodule", the script parses the various options and then invokes "git-submodule--helper". Unlike most builtin git commands which parse short/long options using parse-options.c, the parsing of arguments is completely done within git-submodule.sh; therefore, there are some inconsistencies with the rest of the commands, in particular the parsing of option arguments given to various options. Improve the handling of option arguments for both long & short options; for example, passing flags such as "--branch=master" or "-j8" now works. Changes since v2: - Remove redundant patch from the series. - Rename another variable for the sake of consistency.
