Subject: git init --separate-git-dir does not update symbolic .git links for submodules
Date: Sat, 4 Mar 2017 13:15:17 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ede7618e-fdf9-7bb6-850b-2b03b4092306@cs-ware.de> (raw)

Hi,

clone or have a repository with submodules.

Now issue "git init --separate-git-dir ../test" which moves the content
of the .git direcotry to the ../test directory and replaces the .git
directory with a .git file "link".

However, for all submodules the .git-file is not updated and still
points to the .git directory of the parent repository which now is a file.

This issue is present for me in Git 2.12.0.
