git clone has a very helpful %complete indicator that lets me know my
system has not locked up.

Unfortunately, the git submodule command has no %complete indicator.
My team has a repository that takes 5-10 minutes to complete the git
submodule command.  They warned me to just let it run, and they were
right.  I would have killed and restarted it if they didn't tell me.

Please add a %complete indicator to the git submodule command.

Thanks,
Gene
