Orgad and Raizel ShanehHello,
Marking a submodule with update-index --assume-unchanged breaks diff.
Consider the script in http://pastebin.ca/2082543. The last 'diff' output follows. Note that the diff for 'afile' is displayed, then sub breaks the operation, and the diff for 'test' (or any other file that comes after 'sub') is not displayed at all.
