Merge branch 'wk/submodule-on-branch'

Make sure 'submodule update' modes that do not detach HEADs can
be used more pleasantly by checking out a concrete branch when
cloning them to prime the well.

  Documentation: describe 'submodule update --remote' use case
  submodule: explicit local branch creation in module_clone
  submodule: document module_clone arguments in comments
  submodule: make 'checkout' update_module mode more explicit

update::
Update the registered submodules, i.e. clone missing submodules and
checkout the commit specified in the index of the containing repository.
This will make the submodules HEAD be detached unless `--rebase` or
`--merge` is specified or the key `submodule.$name.update` is set to
`rebase`, `merge` or `none`. `none` can be overridden by specifying
`--checkout`. Setting the key `submodule.$name.update` to `!command`
will cause `command` to be run. `command` can be any arbitrary shell
command that takes a single argument, namely the sha1 to update to.
checkout the commit specified in the index of the containing
repository. The update mode defaults to `checkout`, but can be
configured with the `submodule.<name>.update` setting or the
`--rebase`, `--merge`, or `--checkout` options.
+
For updates that clone missing submodules, checkout-mode updates will
create submodules with detached HEADs; all other modes will create
submodules with a local branch named after `submodule.<path>.branch`.
+
For updates that do not clone missing submodules, the submodule's HEAD
is only touched when the remote reference does not match the
submodule's HEAD (for none-mode updates, the submodule is never
touched). The remote reference is usually the gitlinked commit from
the superproject's tree, but with `--remote` it is the upstream
subproject's `submodule.<name>.branch`. This remote reference is
integrated with the submodule's HEAD using the specified update mode.
For checkout-mode updates, that will result in a detached HEAD. For
rebase- and merge-mode updates, the commit referenced by the
submodule's HEAD may change, but the symbolic reference will remain
unchanged (i.e. checked-out branches will still be checked-out
branches, and detached HEADs will still be detached HEADs). If none
of the builtin modes fit your needs, set `submodule.<name>.update` to
`!command` to configure a custom integration command. `command` can
be any arbitrary shell command that takes a single argument, namely
the sha1 to update to.

If the submodule is not yet initialized, and you just want to use the
setting as stored in .gitmodules, you can automatically initialize the

fetches the submodule's remote repository before calculating the
SHA-1. If you don't want to fetch, you should use `submodule update
--remote --no-fetch`.
+
Use this option to integrate changes from the upstream subproject with
your submodule's current HEAD. Alternatively, you can run `git pull`
from the submodule, which is equivalent except for the remote branch
name: `update --remote` uses the default upstream repository and
`submodule.<name>.branch`, while `git pull` uses the submodule's
`branch.<name>.merge`. Prefer `submodule.<name>.branch` if you want
to distribute the default upstream branch with the superproject and
`branch.<name>.merge` if you want a more native feel while working in
the submodule itself.
