Does this mean that options like submodule.fetchJobs can be specified in either .gitmodules or .git/config, like the submodule.<name>.* options?

I would expect a good value for fetchJobs to be machine-specific. Would it work to put the submodule.fetchJobs handling in submodule.c::submodule_config alongside fetch.recurseModules instead?

Thanks, Jonathan
