[PATCH] unpack-trees.c: assume submodules are clean during check-out

From
SVSven Verdoolaege <skimo@kotnet.org>
Date
Jul 17, 2007, 18:28 UTC
Message-ID
<20070717182828.GA4583MdfPADPa@greensroom.kotnet.org>

In particular, when moving back to a commit without a given submodule and then moving back forward to a commit with the given submodule, we shouldn't complain that updating would lose untracked file in the submodule, because git currently does not checkout subprojects during superproject check-out.

I'm not sure if t7400-submodule-basic is the best place for the test, but it has the right context for the test.
