Hmm, I haven't used smudge filters before, but it seems to me that
`git grep $REVISION` does not honor them.

Declaring files as binary in the submodule works fine. But I noticed
that textconv filter specifications in the submodule's config are
currently ignored. To be honest, I wasn't aware of this issue before.

Hmm, not to submodule-specific configuration but to worktree-specific
configuration of a submodule, right? I.e. a config.worktree file from
within a submodule. Reconsidering this now, we could indeed have a
diff.<driver>.textconv or core.quotePath settings specified in the
worktree scope of a submodule. And we should honor them when recursing
in grep. I guess I thought the "most natural" place for these
settings, in a submodule, would be in the standard .git/config file
(as opposed to the sparse-checkout ones, which are normally at
config.worktree). That's probably why I wrote "Such scenario might not
be needed now". But we should indeed support reading
diff.<driver>.textconv from config.worktree as well (although grep
currently ignores this setting in submodules, both in the local and
worktree scopes). So the said sentence doesn't make much sense,
indeed. I will remove it. Thanks!

OK, will do.
