+Submodule Rewriting

+--rewrite-submodules-from=<name>:<file>::
+--rewrite-submodules-to=<name>:<file>::
+ Rewrite the object IDs for the submodule specified by <name> from the values
+ used in the from <file> to those used in the to <file>. The from marks should
+ have been created by `git fast-export`, and the to marks should have been
+ created by `git fast-import` when importing that same submodule.
++
+<name> may be any arbitrary string not containing a colon character, but the
+same value must be used with both options when specifying corresponding marks.
+Multiple submodules may be specified with different values for <name>. It is an
+error not to use these options in corresponding pairs.
++
+These options are primarily useful when converting a repository from one hash
+algorithm to another; without them, fast-import will fail if it encounters a
+submodule because it has no way of writing the object ID into the new hash
+algorithm.
