如何使用 python 从更新中排除 git 子模块？

Question

When I run the following command from a bash shell, it works as expected, and updates all submodules except the one indicated as to-be-ignored:

git -c submodule."MySub".update=none submodule update --init --recursive

However, when I attempt the same thing in python using subprocess, MySub gets updated as well:

cmd = ['git', '-c', 'submodule."MySub".update=none', 'submodule', 'update', '--init', '--recursive']

subprocess.call(cmd)

Do I need to format the 'submodule."MySub".update=none' argument differently?

In bash you can use the quotes for special characters in the submodule path (slashes for example), but in python you don't need them. Try it with:

'submodule.MySub.update=none'
