It seems like submodule isn't picking up on the work tree that I'm specifying. In the scenario that I'm working with, I'd prefer to not have to "cd" into a directory to update the submodules. All the other git subcommands that I'm executing work fine with specifying the git dir and work tree via envvars or parameters. I'm not sure if this is a bug or not.
