submodule deinit: require '--all' instead of '.' for all submodules
The discussion in [1] pointed out that '.' is a faulty suggestion as there is a corner case where it fails: > "submodule deinit ." may have "worked" in the sense that you would > have at least one path in your tree and avoided this "nothing > matches" most of the time. It would have still failed with the > exactly same error if run in an empty repository, i.e. > > $ E=/var/tmp/x/empty && rm -fr "$E" && mkdir -p "$E" && cd "$E" > $ git init > $ rungit v2.6.6 submodule deinit . > error: pathspec '.' did not match any file(s) known to git. > Did you forget to 'git add'? > $ >file && git add file > $ rungit v2.6.6 submodule deinit . > $ echo $? > 0 So instead of a pathspec add the '--all' option to deinit all submodules and add a test to check for the corner case of an empty repository. The code only needs to learn about the '--all' option and doesn't require further changes as `git submodule--helper list "$@"` will list all submodules when "$@" is empty.
