I am still bad at following coding conventions, apparently. will remove.

submodule_from_ce returns always NULL, when such flag is not given. From 10/18:

+const struct submodule *submodule_from_ce(const struct cache_entry *ce)
+{
+       if (!S_ISGITLINK(ce->ce_mode))
+               return NULL;
+
+       if (!should_update_submodules())
+               return NULL;
+
+       return submodule_from_path(null_sha1, ce->name);
+}

should_update_submodules is always false if such a flag is not set, such that we end up in the else case which is literally the same as the removed lines (they are just indented).

This doesn't fix a bug, but in case the flag is given (in patches 17,18) this new code removes submodules that are no longer recorded in the tree.
