(As stated in the commit message of that commit, unpack-trees was also
taught a similar thing prior, but unpack-trees correctly checks for
GITLINK before including objects in the set to be fetched.)
---
One of my colleagues noticed this when switching branches in a
superproject with a dirty working tree (hence triggering the diff
mechanism). The test I included in this commit tests a simpler use case,
but I've verified that this solves my colleague's case too.
