Hmph.  It may be a bit strange to see an "index-only" remove to
touch working tree, no?  Yet submodules_absorb_gitdir_if_needed() is
unconditionally called above, which feels somewhat unexpected.

I do not see any behaviour change from the original (not quoted
here), but it is somewhat surprising that "git rm ./submodule" does
not really check if the submodule has local modifications and files
that are not even added before remove_dir_recursively() is called.

Or perhaps I am reading the code incorrectly and such a check is
done elsewhere?
