I think (but I'm no expert here) that this is a current limitation that is slowly being worked on upstream.

If you want to have a look at the developer list discussions try https://public-inbox.org/git/?q=git+push+--recurse-submodules (adjust the search to taste...)

Stephan Beller is the power behind the development. Also confirm that you have the right settings enabled, e.g. this confusion https://public-inbox.org/git/cagz79kabctd9uvw+gpxxjgf8bfiqvmkhka4up8gc_kxjdv-...@mail.gmail.com/

I have a case where we have a repository with nested submodules.  If I make a change in the lowest level submodule and do a push with the recurse flag from its parent, there are no issues.  However, if I jump to the grandparent repository, it will recurse into the parent to push (or check), but not into the lower child.

For a test, assume:
- /   #  Root repo, "git push recurse-submodules" will find and push changes in parent/Level1, but does not check Level 2. - /parent    # Submodule, Level 1.  "git push recurse-submodules" works as expected at this level.
- /parent/child  # Submodule, Level 2


Is this behavior that's not supported, a bug, or am I doing something wrong here?

thanks,
