Hello, After submodule update with git 2.39.0 some of our sub modules got their worktree settings in the .git/modules//config fil set as absolute paths. See the attached config files as example. It seems that if the path is changed from relative. Not all submodules are effected. It happens also sporadically and not and very frequently. It is possible to carry on working Cygwin git. However, we are using Tortoise git with libgit2 and git for windows in parallel. Due to the absolute Cygwin paths this is not working anymore. We have not yet seen such a behavior in git for windows. Also we can't reproduce it at this point in time. We consider it a bug but nor sure about it. Best regards i. V.
