There are several reasons why we'll prefer not to\nuse the shell script. My project intends to convert the subcommands into\nC code, thus making them builtins. This will increase Git's portability\nand hence the efficiency of working with the git-submodule commands.\nLink to the complete proposal: [1]\n\nMentors:\nStefan Beller <sbeller@google.com>\nChristian Couder <christian.couder@gmail.com>\n\nUPDATES:\n\nFollowing are the updates about my ongoing project:\n\n* add: most of the time of the week was spent in debugging the\n  ported submodule subcommand functions. But, even after so,\n  currently the ported functions fail in total 15 tests from\n  the test suit. The WIP patches have been updated regularly,\n  and currently the patch is under discussion with the mentors\n  as well. The current status of the patch is pushed on github as\n  well, and can be viewed at:[2]\n\nSince the rest of the patches were almost the same as that in the\nprevious update(except for the 'summary' patch, which was last\nupdated after Christian's review), the haven't been uploaded\nagain to avoid unnecessary floating patches.\nThe previous updated series is available at: [3]\nBut given that, next week I plan to float a separate patch\nseries, containing the initial patches from the subcommand porting\nseries (till deinit), which IMO, are ready for maintainer's\nreview.\n\nAlso, this week's update was one-day late, since I was traveling\non the previous day. But a prior idea about this was given to the\nmentors.\n\nPLAN FOR WEEK-14 (15 August 2017 to 21 August 2017):\n\n* patches: Float a separate series, till deinit, and ask the maintainer\n  for its review.\n\n* add: The main aim of the next week is to resolve the issues with\n  the current patch, and get all the tests pass.\n\n* update: it is the last remaining subcommand to be ported. I aim to\n  atleast start with this in the following week.\n\nThe work till week-13 is pushed on Github and is available at: [4].\n\n[1]: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1krxVLooWl--75Pot3dazhfygR3wCUUWZWzTXtK1L-xU/\n[2]: https://github.com/pratham-pc/git/commits/sub-add\n[3]: https://public-inbox.org/git/20170807211900.15001-1-pc44800@gmail.com/\n[4]: https://github.com/pratham-pc/git/commits/week-13\n"}]}
