Yep, that was just an RFC for status and diff. I think teaching add and commit to skip submodules if ignored are a separate topic and thus will be in a separate patch. I have to add tests and probably some more commands. The logic of ignoring submodules is implemented quite deep in the diff code. So changing it can affect quite some commands so we have to check quite carefully what will be affected and if we can change it without to much fallout.

Thanks, good to know. Stay tuned!
