git -c credential.helper=helper submodule update --init submodule

does not invoke "helper", but falls back to the default strategies.
When configuring in ~/.gitconfig:

[credential]
  helper=helper

git submodule update --init submodule

works fine. This behavior is somewhat unexpected -- is this a bug or by intention? In case intention, what's the recommended way to "inject" credentials helpers to work on submodules without modifying Git's config files?

Tested with Git 2.5.0 (Windows).
