With more recent versions of Git, namely, the versions after
30a52c1d (Merge branch 'ms/submodule-update-config-doc' into maint,
2015-03-13), the documentation pages already have updated
descriptions around this area.

sigh.

That's what I get for forgetting to type 'git pull' before writing a
patch.

Sorry for the noise!

Nothing to apologise or sigh about.  You re-confirmed that the old
documentation was lacking, which led to an earlier discussion which
in turn led to Michal to update the documentation.  If you check the
output from

    git diff 30a52c1d^ 30a52c1d

and find it appropriately address the problem you originally had,
that would be wonderful, and if you can suggest further improvement,
that is equally good.

I think 30a52c1d could be improved with the following snippet from Ryans patch.

"For security reasons, this feature is not supported from the
`.gitmodules` file"

Or something along those lines.

Which is actually down the bottom if I take the time to read the whole diff.
