submodule: correct error message for missing commits

2017-09-28T05:15:20+00:00

When a submodule diff should be displayed we currently just add the
submodule objects to the main object store and then e.g. walk the
revision graph and create a summary for that submodule.

It is possible that we are missing the submodule either completely or
partially, which we currently differentiate with different error messages
depending on whether (1) the whole submodule object store is missing or
(2) just the needed for this particular diff. (1) is reported as
"not initialized", and (2) is reported as "commits not present".

If a submodule is deinit'ed its repository data is still around inside
the superproject, such that the diff can still be produced. In that way
the error message (1) is misleading as we can have a diff despite the
submodule being not initialized.

Downgrade the error message (1) to be the same as (2) and just say
the commits are not present, as that is the true reason why the diff
cannot be shown.

Merge branch 'rj/test-ulimit-on-windows'

2017-09-25T06:24:10+00:00

On Cygwin, "ulimit -s" does not report failure but it does not work
at all, which causes an unexpected success of some tests that
expect failures under a limited stack situation.  This has been
fixed.

  test-lib: use more compact expression in PIPE prerequisite
