yes.

This is to be able to call git-fsck-objects and git-prune in the
toplevel supermodule.  When traversing the object tree, it already knows
about all submodule, but only about those versions that are really part
of their supermodule.
So I have to teach git about separate submodule branches which may be
used, in order not to prune them away.
