I do not offhand recall anything; the closest I can think of is the
three-patch series <20171016135623.GA12756@book.hvoigt.net> that
taught the on-demand recursive fetch to pay attention to the location
in the superproject tree a submodule is bound to.

    4b4acedd61 submodule: simplify decision tree whether to or not to fetch
    c68f837576 implement fetching of moved submodules
    01ce12252c fetch: add test to make sure we stay backwards compatible

But IIRC, "submodule update" uses a separate codepath?
