The guide "gitsubmodules" was added in d480345 (submodules: overhaul
documentation, 2017-06-22), but it was not added to
command-list.txt when commit 1b81d8c (help: use command-list.txt
for the source of guides, 2018-05-20) taught "git help" to obtain the
guide list from this file.
Add it now, and capitalize the first word of the description of
gitsubmodules, as was done in 1b81d8c (help: use command-list.txt
for the source of guides, 2018-05-20) for the other guides.

There appears to be a bug in the toolchain generating manpages from
lettered lists. When a list is enumerated with letters, the resulting
nroff shows numbers instead. Mostly this is harmless, but in the case of
gitsubmodules, the paragraph following the list refers back to each
bullet by letter. As a result, reading this documentation via `man
gitsubmodules` is hard to parse - readers must infer that a bug exists
and a refers to 1, b refers to 2, and c refers to 3 in the list above.
The problem specifically was introduced in ad47194; previously rather
than generating numerated lists the bulleted area was entirely
monospaced in HTML and shown in plaintext in nroff.
The bug seems to exist in docbook-xml - I've reported it on May 1 via
the docbook-apps mail list - but for now it may make more sense to just
work around the issue.

Doc markup fix.
* ms/non-ascii-ticks:
Documentation/gitsubmodules.txt: avoid non-ASCII apostrophes
|
|
In gitsubmodules.txt, a few non-ASCII apostrophes are used to spell
possessive, e.g. "submodule's". These unfortunately are not
rendered at https://git-scm.com/docs/gitsubmodules correctly by the
renderer used there.
Use ASCII apostrophes instead to work around the problem. It also
is good to be consistent, as there are possessives spelled with
ASCII apostrophes.

This patch aims to detangle (a) the usage of `git-submodule`
from (b) the concept of submodules and (c) how the actual
implementation looks like, such as where they are configured
and (d) what the best practices are.
To do so, move the conceptual parts of the 'git-submodule'
man page to a new man page gitsubmodules(7). This new page
is just like gitmodules(5), gitattributes(5), gitcredentials(7),
gitnamespaces(7), gittutorial(7), which introduce a concept
rather than explaining a specific command.
