Git-lfs: Submodule update does not update git-lfs files

[lacombar]

Actual behavior:

% git config --global lfs.fetchinclude 'external/linux/*64*'
% git submodule update --init
% [downloading packages matching 'external/linux/*64*']
% git config --global lfs.fetchinclude 'external/linux/*32*'
% git submodule update --init
[nothing happened]

Expected behavior

% git config --global lfs.fetchinclude 'external/linux/*64*'
% git submodule update --init
[downloading packages matching 'external/linux/*64*']
% git config --global lfs.fetchinclude 'external/linux/*32*'
% git submodule update --init
[downloading packages matching 'external/linux/*32]

Thanks for the report. I've marked it as a bug. My hunch is that since the submodule didn't change, git submodule update --init doesn't do anything, bypassing the git smudge filter.

I think that:

$ git submodule update --init --force
# ...

should work as intended.

@ttaylorr, that actually also doesn't work, unfortunately.
