"git submodule init" only copies the "update" and "url" settings to .git/config, all others default to the value they have in the .gitmodules file if they aren't found in .git/config. This allows upstream to change these settings unless the user copies them to .git/config himself. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
