[PATCH 0/2] submodules: Use relative paths to gitdir and work tree

This patch series replaces all absolute paths pointing from submodule work trees to its gitdir and back with relative paths as discussed in $gmane/187785.

The motivation is to make superprojects movable again. They lost this ability with the move of the git directory of submodules into the .git/modules directory of the superproject. While fixing that a bug which would hit when moving the submodule inside the superproject was also fixed.

Jens Lehmann (2):
  submodules: always use a relative path to gitdir
  submodules: always use a relative path from gitdir to work tree
