[PATCH v5] submodule: prevent overwriting .gitmodules entry on path reuse

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When a submodule is added, Git writes submodule.<name>.active = true
to the repository configuration to mark it as active. This happens even
when the submodule path already matches a pattern in submodule.active.
This results in redundant configuration entries that are unnecessary
and clutter the config, especially when pattern-based activation is used.

Avoid writing the submodule.<name>.active entry if the path is already
covered by a pattern in submodule.active.
