If you remove a submodule, in order to keep the repository so that
"git checkout" to an older commit in the superproject history can
resurrect the submodule, the real repository will stay in $GIT_DIR
of the superproject. A later "git submodule add $path" to add a
different submodule at the same path will fail. Diagnose this case
a bit better, and if the user really wants to add an unrelated
submodule at the same path, give the "--name" option to give it a
place in $GIT_DIR of the superproject that does not conflict with
the original submodule.
* jl/submodule-add-by-name:
submodule add: Fail when .git/modules/<name> already exists unless forced
Teach "git submodule add" the --name option
"git rm submodule" cannot blindly remove a submodule directory as
its working tree may have local changes, and worse yet, it may even
have its repository embedded in it. Teach it some special cases
where it is safe to remove a submodule, specifically, when there is
no local changes in the submodule working tree, and its repository
is not embedded in its working tree but is elsewhere and uses the
gitfile mechanism to point at it.
* jl/submodule-rm:
submodule: teach rm to remove submodules unless they contain a git directory
This function was added in f103f95b11 in
the erroneous expectation that it would be used in the
reimplementation of longest_ancestor_length(). But it turned out to
be easier to use a function specialized for comparing path prefixes
(i.e., one that knows about slashes and root paths) than to prepare
the paths in such a way that a generic string prefix comparison
function can be used. So delete string_list_longest_prefix() and its
documentation and test cases.

Teach symbolic-ref to delete symrefs by adding the -d/--delete option to
git-symbolic-ref. Both proper and dangling symrefs are deleted by this
option, but other refs - or anything else that is not a symref - is not.
The symref deletion is performed by first verifying that we are given a
proper symref, and then invoking delete_ref() on it with the REF_NODEREF
flag.

You can currently set the output format to --short or
--porcelain. There is no --long, because we default to it
already. However, you may want to override an alias that
uses "--short" to get back to the default.
This requires a little bit of refactoring, because currently
we use STATUS_FORMAT_LONG internally to mean the same as
"the user did not specify anything". By expanding the enum
to include STATUS_FORMAT_NONE, we can distinguish between
the implicit and explicit cases. This effects these
conditions:
1. The user has asked for NUL termination. With NONE, we
currently default to turning on the porcelain mode.
With an explicit --long, we would in theory use NUL
termination with the long mode, but it does not support
it. So we can just complain and die.
2. When an output format is given to "git commit", we
default to "--dry-run". This behavior would now kick in
when "--long" is given, too.
