Re: git submodules implementation question

Thanks for the patch. Unfortunately, it doesn't help in my case as it invokes the is_submodule_modified() routine which you didn't modify. Here's my call trace....

I think the following fix is still needed to is_submodule_modified():

        strbuf_addf(&buf, "%s/.git", path);
        git_dir = read_gitfile(buf.buf);
        if (!git_dir) {
                git_dir = buf.buf;
 ==>               if (!is_git_directory(git_dir)) {
 ==>                     die("Corrupted .git dir in submodule %s", path);
 ==>               }
        }

Thanks, Uma
