Ever since df56607dff (git-common-dir: make "modules/"
per-working-directory directory, 2014-11-30), submodules in linked worktrees
are cloned to $GIT_DIR/modules, i.e. $GIT_COMMON_DIR/worktrees/<name>/modules.

However, this convention was not followed when the worktree updater commands
checkout, reset and read-tree learned to recurse into submodules. Specifically,
submodule.c::submodule_move_head, introduced in 6e3c1595c6 (update submodules:
add submodule_move_head, 2017-03-14) and submodule.c::submodule_unset_core_worktree,
(re)introduced in 898c2e65b7 (submodule: unset core.worktree if no working tree
is present, 2018-12-14) use get_git_common_dir() instead of get_git_dir()
to get the path of the submodule repository.

This means that, for example, 'git checkout --recurse-submodules <branch>'
in a linked worktree will correctly checkout <branch>, detach the submodule's HEAD
at the commit recorded in <branch> and update the submodule working tree, but the
submodule HEAD that will be moved is the one in $GIT_COMMON_DIR/modules/<name>/,
i.e. the submodule repository of the main superproject working tree.
It will also rewrite the gitfile in the submodule working tree of the linked worktree
to point to $GIT_COMMON_DIR/modules/<name>/.
This leads to an incorrect (and confusing!) state in the submodule working tree
of the main superproject worktree.

Additionnally, if switching to a commit where the submodule is not present,
submodule_unset_core_worktree will be called and will incorrectly remove
'core.wortree' from the config file of the submodule in the main superproject worktree,
$GIT_COMMON_DIR/modules/<name>/config.

Fix this by constructing the path to the submodule repository using get_git_dir()
in both submodule_move_head and submodule_unset_core_worktree.

Here, and the rest of these tests, please drop the space between the ">" and
the output file: ">expect-gitfile".

Why test_might_fail here, and below? Because the config may not exist, which
would return an error code? Should we _expect_ that failure with test_must_fail?

> +	test_might_fail git -C main/sub config --get core.worktree > actual &&

This tests that core.wortkree didn't change throughout the process, but
could we instead confirm an exact value by echoing into "expect" and
comparing both config outputs against that value?

Perhaps it is worth checking the success of the command that was failing
in submodules that still had core.worktree=true before 898c2e6? For your
test, it would be:

	git -C main/.git/worktrees/checkout-recurse/modules/sub log

I expected that question and answered in the cover letter (since Gitgitgadet can’t (yet, I hope) do in-patch "timely commentaries", [1]), but here is my answer:
I used test_might_fail such that when the test is run on the current master, only the last test_cmp makes the test fail. If we want to be more strict I'll change that to :

Good idea, thanks. I’ll harden the test in v2.

I’ll also add that.

Thanks for the review!
Philippe.
p.s. Sorry for the re-send, I forgot to CC the list.
