Description
Git submodules allow relative URLs which are based on the parent repo URL.
Right now this is not supported, ie. adding a submodule configuration in .gitmodules with a relative URL will fail when cloning in the add or update Submodule.
A sample stack trace when calling submodule.update(init=True):
GitCommandError Cmd('git') failed due to: exit code(128) cmdline: git clone -n --separate-git-dir=/opt/parent_project/.git/modules/submodule_project -v ../../my-company/submodule-project.git /opt/parent_project/submodule_project stderr: 'fatal: repository '../../my-company/submodule-project.git' does not exist ' git/cmd.py in wait at line 291 git/util.py in finalize_process at line 341 git/repo/base.py in _clone at line 880 git/repo/base.py in clone_from at line 925 git/objects/submodule/base.py in _clone_repo at line 261 git/objects/submodule/base.py in update at line 524 GitPython==2.1.1
