Q: Should "submodule set-url" add .gitmodules to index?

Hi!

Realizing that some of my git submodule repositories were at the wrong path, I moved the repositories and updated a workspace using "git submodule set-url ...".
Checking the status I noticed that .gitmodules was not added to index (as opposed to a "git mv ...").
Is that intentional?
Seen in git 2.26.2.
