Subject: [PATCH v7 0/2] Avoid submodule overwritten and skip redundant active entries
Message-ID: <20250524073055.58092-1-jayatheerthkulkarni2005@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To: <CA+rGoLdbZvD_aMfB=J_cJay-4Ptgf+=R3es9vmdrsHkGhCtPmw@mail.gmail.com>

This series of patch covers mainly two areas

1. The bug report where after submodule was moved and the path remained same
   when a new submodule was added then it directly was overwriting the 
   moved submodule as the present submodule since the path matched.

2. The configure_added_submodule was writing submodule.<name>.active
   entry, even when the new path is already matched by submodule.active
   patterns.

Below is a helper function and 2 new tests with fixes of the above problem.

V7 has added Tab spaces in the test rather than 4 spaces in V6

Junio C Hamano (1):
  The seventeenth batch
