This looks strange, but I think I see what do you mean. I will use

if (strcmp(subkey, ".path") || subkey == key + strlen("submodule.") - 1)

Matter of taste, I suppose. I have changed this to warning(), though it
is dubious configuration at best.

They follow up in the next patches. ;-)  They use the submodule name
only to access the configuration again, so this format is the most
convenient for them.

Would you seriously find it prettier with the newline?
