--cached::
- Display the SHA-1 stored in the index, not the SHA-1 of the currently
- checked out submodule commit. This option is only valid for the
- status command.
+ This option is only valid for status and summary commands. These
+ commands typically use the commit found in the submodule HEAD, but

+-n, --summary-limit::
+ This option is only valid for the summary command.
+ Limit the summary size (number of commits shown in total).
