1. 'git-submodule init' saves submodule name and suggested url from
.gitmodules into .git/config (submodule.$name.url)

Could you please document the proposed .gitmodules first?

The man-page for git-submodule found in 'next' mentions how it uses
.gitmodules, but there isn't (yet) a separate man-page for
.gitmodules(5).

But: when I implement the proposed plan, it will change the current
layout of .gitmodules from

[module '$path']
  url=/some/url

to

[path '$path']
  submodule=modulename
  url=/some/url

Is it ok if gitmodules(5) appears as part of the planned patch-series?
