2018-12-05repository: repo_submodule_init to take a submodule structLibravatar Stefan Beller1-3/+5
When constructing a struct repository for a submodule for some revision of the superproject where the submodule is not contained in the index, it may not be present in the working tree currently either. In that situation giving a 'path' argument is not useful. Upgrade the repo_submodule_init function to take a struct submodule instead. The submodule struct can be obtained via submodule_from_{path, name} or an artificial submodule struct can be passed in. While we are at it, rename the repository struct in the repo_submodule_init function, which is to be initialized, to a name that is not confused with the struct submodule as easily. Perform such renames in similar functions as well. Also move its documentation into the header file.

2018-10-31t/helper: add test-submodule-nested-repo-configLibravatar Antonio Ospite1-0/+30
Add a test tool to exercise config_from_gitmodules(), in particular for the case of nested submodules. Add also a test to document that reading the submoudles config of nested submodules does not work yet when the .gitmodules file is not in the working tree but it still in the index. This is because the git API does not always make it possible access the object store of an arbitrary repository (see get_oid() usage in config_from_gitmodules()). When this git limitation gets fixed the aforementioned use case will be supported too. Signed-off-by: Antonio Ospite <ao2@ao2.it> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
