git diff "understands" a lot of things, therefore I'd like to be a bit
more specific here by mentioning the --ignore-submodules= option:

+#       once GIT_PS1_SHOWDIRTYSTATE is enabled.  You can also set
+#       GIT_PS1_IGNORESUBMODULES to a value that git diff
+#       --ignore-submodules= understands to adjust the behavior of the
+#       dirty state indicator.

But it might be just me being unfamiliar with submodules.  Otherwise
it looks good and reasonable to me.
