Thanks, with regards to gc/submodule-use-super-prefix that series gets
my enthusiastic (if it helps):

	Reviewed-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com>

Likewise the ab/submodule-cleanup parent topic has Glen's:

	Reviewed-by: Glen Choo <chooglen@google.com>

Per [1] and [2]. I.e. the latest is the v4, but the Reviewed-By was
given to v3 in [1], and [4] notes on v4 that the one remaining concern
was addressed.

Thanks both, it's great to see us this close to getting rid of another
*.sh built-in. I plan to submit the migration to the builtin/submodule.c
after these two land, possibly after some memory leak fixes to
builtin/submodule--helper.c.
