Suppose I do:
git checkout -b topic
(
cd my/favorite/submodule
... hack hack hack ...
git commit
)
# in superproject
git commit -a
git checkout master
git submodule update --init
... wait for reflog entry to expire and gc --auto to trigger ...
git checkout topic
git submodule update
Expected result:
I'm back on topic and get back to work.
Actual result:
fatal: reference is not a tree: ac0dfa5c9cb03b273798585ec8d08069f41fbac0
Unable to checkout 'ac0dfa5c9cb03b273798585ec8d08069f41fbac0' in submodule
path 'my/favorite/submodule'
Fixing this might involve submodule repositories containing some
pointer to their parent projects and 'git fsck' being slowed down.
Or something more hackish involving temporary refs that 'checkout
--recurse-submodules' knows to set up and later clear could work.
