BTW, for long running topics (or low hanging fruits) we collect/link everything in the wiki of Jens git fork on github. This is the central page: https://github.com/jlehmann/git-submod-enhancements/wiki Maybe everyone that has work in the queue can add his work there (the work that takes more time) so we can avoid doubling any effort. Not everything there is up to date at the moment but I will look into it to remove outdated things. > >>>I've worked on git diff --recursive a bit myself, along with some > >>>simpler use cases (git ls-tree --recursive) as POCs.
