[PATCH v2 0/3] Add testcases showing suboptimal submodule/path conflict handling

[Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com>]

This patch series documents a few problems with submodules and merging,
first mentioned at [1].

Changes since v1 (full range-diff below):
  - Incorporate suggestions from Stefan: use test_commit and git
    submodule add (note that git submodule add means there will also
    be a .gitmodules file, so the count of tracked files goes up by
    1)
  - Explain the tests a little better
  - Test the merge --abort case a little more thoroughly.
