/**
 * The submodule config cache API allows to read submodule
 * configurations/information from specified revisions. Internally
 * information is lazily read into a cache that is used to avoid
 * unnecessary parsing of the same .gitmodules files. Lookups can be done by
 * submodule path or name.
 *
 * Usage
 * -----
 *
 * The caller can look up information about submodules by using the
 * `submodule_from_path()` or `submodule_from_name()` functions. They return
 * a `struct submodule` which contains the values. The API automatically
 * initializes and allocates the needed infrastructure on-demand. If the
 * caller does only want to lookup values from revisions the initialization
 * can be skipped.
 *
 * If the internal cache might grow too big or when the caller is done with
 * the API, all internally cached values can be freed with submodule_free().
 *
