[PATCH 18/19] submodule: use submodule repos for object lookup

From
Stefan Beller <sbeller@google.com>
Date
Oct 16, 2018, 23:35 UTC
Message-ID
<20181016233550.251311-19-sbeller@google.com>
In-Reply-To
<20181016233550.251311-1-sbeller@google.com>

This converts the 'show_submodule_header' function to use the repository API properly, such that the submodule objects are not added to the main object store.
