Re: [PATCH] Pass --upload-pack and --receive-pack through submodules.

While I no longer have to worry about a zillion ancient OS versions,
I now have to worry about a remote site where I cannot control the
path for non-interactive shells.  Thus, submodules need to handle
explicitly specified git-upload-pack and git-receive-pack programs.

Do we (and can we) assume that the remote repositories submodules fetch
from all reside on the same host and can share the same values for these
parameters?  Shouldn't these instead be specified in the configuration
files for the submodules, if they need to be nonstandard values?
