Attached is a patch for the ExternalProject test that simply passes
an
empty list.
Thanks, that's completely reasonable for a first-time contributor to CMake. I understand it's not easy to jump right in and understand how all the tests operate...
I'd like to pass further testing, i.e. checking against a submodule being another local git, to someone who is more familiar with this testing setup...
Also completely reasonable. I wouldn't hold up getting it into CMake for this, but if anybody else has time to work on a test with git submodules, but no network requirements, that would be most welcome.
We have an external project with many submodules (-> boost...) and confirm that only the submodules given in the option are cloned and updated. However I guess, you want a confirmation from somebody else... :-)
Not that I'm a skeptic.... (well, ok, maybe a smidge...) but I would like to have *independent* confirmation from somebody else that it at least "works for them" before we merge this into CMake.
