* jt/grep-wo-submodule-odb-as-alternate (2021-08-13) 8 commits
 - t7814: show lack of alternate ODB-adding
 - submodule-config: pass repo upon blob config read
 - grep: add repository to OID grep sources
 - grep: allocate subrepos on heap
 - grep: read submodule entry with explicit repo
 - grep: typesafe versions of grep_source_init
 - grep: use submodule-ODB-as-alternate lazy-addition
 - submodule: lazily add submodule ODBs as alternates

 The code to make "git grep" recurse into submodules has been
 updated to migrate away from the "add submodule's object store as
 an alternate object store" mechanism (which is suboptimal).

For what it's worth, Emily Shaffer [1], Josh Steadmon [2], and Matheus
Tavares [3] have reviewed this patch set.
