Thanks so much for the feedback, Junio. I've updated the patchset based
on your comments.
Currently, there is no way to set the branch of a submodule without
manually manipulating the .gitmodules file. This patchset introduces a
porcelain command that enables this.
Changes since v1:
* Fixed incorrect usage of OPT_CMDMODE
Changes since v2:
* Corrected missing argument for -b/--branch in git-submodule.txt
* Rebased onto latest next
Changes since v3:
* Rebased back onto master
* Address Junio's comments and improve clarity of submodule--helper
patch
* Fix incorrect documentation formatting in git-submodule.txt
