Re: [PATCHv2] submodule update: run custom update script for initial populating as well

> In 1b4735d9f3 (submodule: no [--merge|--rebase] when newly cloned,
> 2011-02-17), all actions were defaulted to checkout for populating
> a submodule initially, because merging or rebasing makes no sense
> in that situation.
> 
> Other commands however do make sense, such as the custom command
> that was added later (6cb5728c43, submodule update: allow custom
> command to update submodule working tree, 2013-07-03).

> I am unsure about the "none" command, as I can see an initial
> checkout there as a useful thing. On the other hand going strictly
> by our own documentation, we should do nothing in case of "none"
> as well, because the user asked for it.
