Well scratch that.
is_staging_gitmodules_ok only checks for the .gitmodules file and not
for the submodule itself (the submodule is not an argument to that function)
The actual answer is found in check_local_mod called via
if (!force) {
struct object_id oid;
if (get_oid("HEAD", &oid))
oidclr(&oid);
if (check_local_mod(&oid, index_only))
exit(1);
}
check_local_mod was touched in the previous patch as it has:
/*
* Is the index different from the file in the work tree?
* If it's a submodule, is its work tree modified?
*/
if (ce_match_stat(ce, &st, 0) ||
(S_ISGITLINK(ce->ce_mode) &&
bad_to_remove_submodule(ce->name,
SUBMODULE_REMOVAL_DIE_ON_ERROR |
SUBMODULE_REMOVAL_IGNORE_IGNORED_UNTRACKED)))
local_changes = 1;
