Git submodule modifications not included in diff
==============================================================================

# What version are you running?
0.7.5

# What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Having a GIT repo with submodules, modify one submodule by checking out 
another commit
2. Commit the change in the parent repository
3. rbt post -p


# What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
What I expect:
Changes in submodules have to be included in the diff, even if the diff view in 
the web interface doesn't show what changed in the submodule (it could show the 
SHA IDs of the submodule versions, though).

We have our repositories set to read-only for everyone except the reviewers, 
only they can actually push commits to the repos. We cannot simply use 'rbt 
patch -C ...' for applying and pushing a commit, as submodule changes are 
completely ignored by RBTools when creating a patch. This means that we have to 
ask the developers for every single review request if there are submodule 
changes and if they should be included in the commit.

Instead, submodule updates have to be included in the diffs, only then would 
'rbt patch -C ...' deliver the expected result.

What I get:
ERROR: There don't seem to be any diffs!

# What operating system are you using?
Windows 10

# Attach the debug out from the command.

```
$ rbt post --debug -p

# Please provide any additional information below.
The problem is the argument '--ignore-submodules' to the 'git diff' command.
