Subject: [PATCH] Documentation: add submodule.* to the big configuration variable list
Date: Thu, 15 Jul 2010 02:51:19 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100715075119.GB22244@burratino> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100715074155.GA22244@burratino>

The url, path, and update items in [submodule "foo"] stanzas are
nicely explained in the .gitmodules and ‘git submodule’
documentation.  Point there from the config documentation.

It’s late, so I don’t trust this to be coherent English necessarily.
Thoughts and improvements welcome.
