One more thing, doing a clean new clone seems to work, but I have this issue in many many repos, which are old clones, from before Git had the ability to check for submodules. Could it be some incompatibility in old clones with this? Is there anything I can look for in the .git/ directory or elsewhere to fix them?

Thanks again!
