Can you configure branch.master.rebase = true in your gnulib submodule
to avoid creating merge commits?

Meanwhile, I've just modified my ~/.gitconfig to alter my syncsub alias
to make it more apparent to me if this situation happens:

[alias]
    syncsub = git submodule foreach git --ff-only origin master

Note the addition of --ff-only.
