Can be passed to the config parsing infrastructure to parse
local (worktree) submodule configurations.
-`const struct submodule *submodule_from_path(const unsigned char *commit_sha1, const char *path)`::
+`const struct submodule *submodule_from_path(const unsigned char *treeish_name, const char *path)`::
- Lookup values for one submodule by its commit_sha1 and path.
+ Given a tree-ish in the superproject and a path, return the

The same as above but lookup by name.

submodule will be returned (e.g. consolidated values from local git
configuration and the .gitmodules file in the worktree).
