Subject: submodule: if $command was not matched, don't parse other args
Date: Sat, 22 Sep 2012 16:57:59 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CALkWK0npySdS7FDt=6VKdtoNS2gqQH5WaTQ4H6TEmXdP9fuF=g@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
When we try to execute 'git submodule' with an invalid subcommand, we
get an error like the following:
$ git submodule show
error: pathspec 'show' did not match any file(s) known to git.
Did you forget to 'git add'?
The cause of the problem: since $command is not matched, it is set to
"status", and "show" is treated as an argument to "status". Change
this so that usage information is printed when an invalid subcommand
is tried.

This breaks test 41 in t7400-submodule-bash -- does the test cover a
real-world usecase?
