Add the --submodule option to the diff option family
When you use the option --submodule=log you can see the submodule summaries inlined in the diff, instead of not-quite-helpful SHA-1 pairs. The format imitates what "git submodule summary" shows. To do that, <path>/.git/objects/ is added to the alternate object databases (if that directory exists). This option was requested by Jens Lehmann at the GitTogether in Berlin.

+--submodule[=<format>]::
+ Chose the output format for submodule differences. <format> can be one of
+ 'short' and 'log'. 'short' just shows pairs of commit names, this format
+ is used when this option is not given. 'log' is the default value for this
+ option and lists the commits in that commit range like the 'summary'
+ option of linkgit:git-submodule[1] does.

Show colored diff.
