From: Imran M Yousuf <imyousuf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
There is a scenario which has been put forward several times in
discussion over the recurse subcommand and it is that commands chould have
different arguments for different modules.
For example, one module could want to checkout 'master', while another might want
to checkout 'work'. The [-a|--customized-argument] argument provides platform
just for that. Consider the following command and its followup for further info:
git submodule recurse -a checkout
Submodule b is not initialized and skipped
git submodule recurse a checkout
Please provide an argument: master
Press y to provide another arg...
git checkout master
Already on branch "master"
Submodule d is not initialized and skipped
git submodule recurse . checkout
Please provide an argument: master
Press y to provide another arg...
git checkout master
Already on branch "master"
This command would also come in handy for diffs and other commands.
