From 893a9764dc5e6d5d3432a47f595ffffade1edd9c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jens Lehmann Date: Fri, 28 Feb 2014 22:41:11 +0000 Subject: submodule update: consistently document the '--checkout' option Commit 322bb6e12f (add update 'none' flag to disable update of submodule by default) added the '--checkout' option to "git submodule update" but forgot to explicitly document it in synopsis, usage string and man page (It is only mentioned implicitly in the man page). In 23d25e48 (submodule: explicit local branch creation in module_clone) the synopsis of the man page was updated, but the "OPTIONS" section of the man page and the usage string of the git-submodule script still do not mention the '--checkout' option. Fix that by documenting this option in usage string and the "OPTIONS" section of man page too. While at it group the update-mode options into a single set in the usage string.
