Hi everyone,

trying to understand if I'm just failing to parse the docs for `git submodule sync`. I'm basically under the impression that I can edit the .gitmodules file by hand and then use that command to sync up my submodules witin .git/config to that value. Am I totally missing something?

An example session can be found on [pastebin][].

Thanks in advance!
