Subject: submodule: add --no-fetch parameter to update command
X-Git-Tag: v1.6.2-rc1~4^2
X-Git-Url: http://git.tremily.us/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=31ca3ac30fe3c2583881a74ef346911c8fba478f;p=git.git

submodule: add --no-fetch parameter to update command

git submodule update --no-fetch makes it possible to use git submodule
update in complete offline mode by not fetching new revisions.

This does make sense in the following setup:

* There is an unstable and a stable branch in the super/master repository.
* The submodules might be at different revisions in the branches.
* You are at some place without internet connection ;)

With this patch it is now possible to change branches and update
the submodules to be at the recorded revision without online access.

Another advantage is that with -N the update operation is faster, because fetch is checking for new updates even if there was no fetch/pull on the super/master repository since the last update.
