I'm working on an experiment to make submodules easier to work with. Part of that is annotating .gitmodules with information to make it so tools can automatically update dependencies.
The
branch
field is actually supported already by upstream git itself.The
tag
field is my invention and my tool may be using it to do semver updates based on the tag name and available upstream tags.I'm not convinced the tag needs to be documented here since the commit hash is already in git and it possible to map that back to tags. I've removed
tag
from the PR for now till I'm convinced it needs to be in the file.
