how to use git submodule foreach and its variables

[3nids]

Not strictly an issue, but I couldn't find anything in the doc and my understanding of the API is limited. Sorry if it's a stupid question.

I would like to use repo.git.submodule('foreach', …) and get the variables available such as name, sm_path, displaypath, sha1 and toplevel as defined in the git documentation.

I cross-posted on stack-overflow as it might be nice to leave a trace there as it might be more visible than a bugtracker on github.

Sorry If I didn't understood the question, but I think you can do this with

repo = git.Repo('foo/bar')
for sub in repo.submodules:
    pass
