When a submodule cannot be described, doing a "git submodule status" on
the supermodule produces unnecesary and scary output,...

I had an impression that describe got a new feature for a case
like this recently.

I'm sorry but I've read the docs and tried with a few options and I have
no idea what that one may be.

The bug is still present on 'next' as of an hour ago.
