Subject: git submodule add: Require the new --force option to add ignored
 paths
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

To make the behavior of "git submodule add" more consistent with "git add"
ignored submodule paths should not be silently added when they match an
entry in a .gitignore file. To be able to override that default behavior
in the same way as we can do that for "git add", the new option "--force"
is introduced.
