Subject: [PATCH 4/7] submodule.*: Introduce simple C interface for submodule lookup by path

From: Petr Baudis <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 16 Jul 2008 21:11:24 +0200

The interface will be used for git-mv and git-rm submodule support.
So far, only the submodule_by_path() function is defined, however more
can be probably expected in the future if/when the git-submodule command
is ported from shell.
