Often when I work in submodules I encounter a situation where HEAD lands in a detached state but still points to the same commit as one of my local branches. This becomes disturbing when I forget to switch to said branch before performing commit. Then, after committing I always have to return to branch, show reflog and cherry-pick commit created on detached HEAD.
It would be helpful for Fork to show a warning when someone tries to commit while HEAD is detached to avoid that situation.
