As suggested in a thread some time ago, one could redefine the URL used 
to fetch submodules by adding a 'url.*.insteadOf' rule prior to the 
first invocation of 'git submodule update'.

If I suggested it, but forgot the "--global" flag to "git config", I 
apologize.

That's a nice way to say that the patchset is unnecessary ;-).
