Regarding why Got isn't seeing the submodule repository: It's because
in a submodule, the path .git is a regular file, rather than a directory.
The file contains a reference to another git directory:

  gitdir: ../.git/modules/foo

I don't think the additional complexity required to support this feature
is warranted. Feature-parity with Git is not a goal for us.
