[PATCH v1] add test to demonstrate that shallow recursive clones fail

From: <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 23:07:14
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

From: Lars Schneider <redacted>

"git clone --recursive --depth 1 --single-branch <url>" clones the
submodules successfully. However, it does not obey "--depth 1" for
submodule cloning.

The following workaround does only work if the used submodule pointer
is on the default branch. Otherwise "git submodule update" fails with
"fatal: reference is not a tree:" and "Unable to checkout".
git clone --depth 1 --single-branch <url>
cd <repo-name>
git submodule update --init --recursive --depth 1
