Hi GIT devs,

I really miss the
  git submodule remove
command.

This should be handle all the tasks what are needed to remove a submodule.
    - Delete the relevant line from the .gitmodules file.
    - Delete the relevant section from .git/config.
    - Run git rm --cached path_to_submodule (no trailing slash).
    - Delete the now untracked submodule files.

These tasks should be handled automatically. Currently you can only remove a submodule manually, no way to do it automatically with one command. "Removing submodules" and "unsubmodule a submodule" are still a pain to do in GIT, even in v2.3.5.

Please consider implementing the "git submodule remove" command.

Thanks, Konrad Lorinczi
