Title: Message Title

Mark Waite commented on JENKINS-60052   Re: Simplify git submodule update command Per pull request 348 the --jobs argument first appeared in command line git 2.9.0. The Jenkins git plugin runs on CentOS 7, Debian 9, and Ubuntu 16, all that deliver a version prior to CLI git 2.9.0. Retaining compatibility with versions of command line git prior to 2.9.0 is crucial for the many users running on those versions of command line git. I believe there were also compatibility failures reported by the automated tests in the git client plugin or the git plugin. I didn't find references to automated test failures in a brief review of the comments on the pull request, but that's my recollection. The submodule implementation in the git client predates many of the improvements in command line git.
