I've a submodule located in a subdirectory
({git_rep}/home/{directory}/{submodule}), and I wanted to move the whole
directory up a level ({git_rep}/{directory}/{submodule}). But when I
used 'git mv {directory} ../' the '.gitmodule' file didn't get modified.

Thanks for the bug report!
Which version of Git do you use? (Did you try different versions?)

I'm using 2.8.0 (on an Arch system). Haven't tested on any other version.
