A modified submodule no longer makes your working tree look dirty for directory sync.

Anonymous. No account, no email.
What
The two git checks used to decide whether a working tree has uncommitted changes for directory sync now ignore submodules entirely, so an out-of-date or modified submodule no longer marks the tree dirty.
Details
--ignore-submodules=allis added unconditionally to both the quietdiffcheck and thediff-files --name-only -zlisting.
Evidence
--ignore-submodules=all
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
