I came up with a patch that fixes the issue locally. (It is the first patch, such that we can track the first patch down to maint)
While doing so, I noticed 2 issues: * when having nested submodules, we probably want to have --submodule=diff to recurse into the nested submodules, so pass on the option. (2nd patch) * the tests in t4060 hardcode hashes literally. I do not have a patch for that yet, but I will send patches later. (c.f. "sanitize_output" in t4202) Thanks, Stefan Stefan Beller (2): diff: submodule inline diff to initialize env array. diff: recurse into nested submodules for inline diff submodule.c | 4 +- t/t4060-diff-submodule-option-diff-format.sh | 70 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 73 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) -- 2.12.2.576.g7be6e4ba40.dirty
