So the thing here is: If we want to make sure that we stay backwards
compatible by supporting the setup with gitlinks without configuration.
Then we also should keep tests around that have the plain manual setup
without .gitmodules files. Just something, I think, we should keep in
mind.
Apart from the tests nothing has been added in this iteration. Since I
finally have a working test now I will continue with reviving the
fallback to paths.
Thanks for an update.
