I fully agree. Fortunately, (at least at a first glance) that does not
seem to be the case.

I just built and installed git from source on a clean FreeBSD 12 install:

```
mqudsi@freebsd12:/easyre % mkdir test
mqudsi@freebsd12:/easyre % cd test
mqudsi@freebsd12:/easyre/test % git init .
Initialized empty Git repository in /easyre/test/.git/
mqudsi@freebsd12:/easyre/test % git submodule add

```
