My use case is an army of build agents that need only limited and

v6 supports submodules better by allowing

	git -c http.extraheader submodule update

to work as one would expect intuitively.

  http: support sending custom HTTP headers

I think this one is in "next", with "will merge to master" in the latest
What's Cooking. So fortunately it does not have any changes in this
version of the series. :)

  submodule: pass on http.extraheader config settings

IMHO this should come on top of jk/submodule-config-sanitize-fix (I was
surprised at first that your test worked at all, but that is because it
is using "clone", which is the one code path that works).

But I think we are waiting on going one of two paths:

  1. drop sanitizing entirely

  2. fix sanitizing and add more variables to it

If we go the route of (2), then we'd want my fix topic and this patch.
And if not, then we don't need any of it (just a patch dropping the
filtering, which AFAIK nobody has written yet).
