Re: [PATCH] submodule: make 'show' an alias for 'summary'

Jens Lehmann [off-list ref] writes:

Me too would expect a show command to show me a list of all the
submodules and maybe some extra information (is it populated or
not, does it have its .git directory embedded, does it contain
changes). So maybe "show" should be a slightly pimped "status"?

What's the next inventive way somebody who did not read the
documentation will come up with to spell the subcommand known as
"status"?  "submodule list"?

Do we really want 47 different subcommands that give the same output
or slight variations thereof?
