Yes, you are right, these patches are not related to the topic at all,
and I will drop them.

Just to make myself clear though, the issue I have is that
git-submodule and the various diff commands do not depend on
git-pull's functionality at all. If only git-pull breaks, these
command will continue to work perfectly. However, if all the tests in
t7406 and t4013 break as well, I would consider that misrepresenting
the problem.

Not that this is really a big problem anyway, the entire failing test
suites just surprised me, that's all. Sorry for the noise.

Thanks,
Paul
