When extensions.worktreeConfig is enabled, this series stores submodule
settings that can differ between worktrees in the worktree config.
The changes include:
* [1/3] Keep submodule.<name>.gitdir relative for linked worktrees.
* [2/3] Store submodule settings in the worktree config when
extensions.worktreeConfig is enabled.
* [3/3] Make git submodule init copy an existing gitdir setting to the
current worktree config only when it belongs to that worktree.
Yoichi NAKAYAMA (3):
submodule: make submodule.<name>.gitdir relative for worktrees
submodule: store settings in worktree config when enabled
submodule init: copy submodule.<name>.gitdir to config.worktree

For a linked worktree, always keep `submodule.<name>.gitdir` relative
to ensure it continues to work when the worktree is moved along with
the main worktree. (This benefit also requires
worktree.useRelativePaths to be set to true.)

From: Yoichi NAKAYAMA <yoichi.nakayama@gmail.com>
Submodule URLs can differ between branches. For example, one branch
may use the upstream repository while another uses a fork for the same
submodule. When these branches are checked out in separate worktrees,
storing `submodule.<name>.url` in the shared repository config
prevents each worktree from using its own URL.
Store submodule settings such as `submodule.<name>.active` and
`submodule.<name>.url` in the worktree config when
`extensions.worktreeConfig` is enabled.
Settings shared between worktrees can remain in the repository
config. When such a setting exists there, 'git submodule deinit' sets
`submodule.<name>.active` to false in the worktree config to
unregister the submodule.
Unlike other settings, `submodule.<name>.gitdir` should not be shared
between worktrees, so exclude it from the config copied by 'git
worktree add'.

* [PATCH 3/3] submodule init: copy submodule.<name>.gitdir to config.worktree
2026-11-12 12:03 [PATCH 0/3] submodule: support worktree-specific configuration Yoichi NAKAYAMA via GitGitGadget
2026-11-12 12:03 ` [PATCH 1/3] submodule: make submodule.<name>.gitdir relative for worktrees Yoichi NAKAYAMA via GitGitGadget
2026-11-12 12:03 ` [PATCH 2/3] submodule: store settings in worktree config when enabled Yoichi NAKAYAMA via GitGitGadget

From: Yoichi NAKAYAMA via GitGitGadget @ 2026-11-12 12:03 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: git; +Cc: Yoichi NAKAYAMA, Yoichi NAKAYAMA
From: Yoichi NAKAYAMA <yoichi.nakayama@gmail.com>
If a repository already has gitdir settings in its repository config
when extensions.worktreeConfig is enabled, those settings belong to a
particular worktree. Make 'git submodule init' copy an existing
setting to the worktree config if it belongs to the current worktree;
otherwise, generate a new setting.
