It seems that in 1.5.4, both 'git status' and 'git status -a' report
"no changes added to commit". And i think this is the right behaviour.
Because when a super project is cloned, all submodule directories are
empty in the beginning. In this case 'git status' and 'git status -a'
should report " no changes added to commit".
