Git::Raw::Tree::Builder doesn't allow for COMMIT (submodule) entry type about p5-git-raw HOT 4 CLOSED

I haven't played with submodules... accepting a SHA-1 is ok as the last option, but I don't think that git_treebuilder_insert is going to be happy about an OID that doesn't exist in the repository, YMMV

from p5-git-raw.

For the time being, I wrote a small c program using libgit2 and the git_treebuilder_insert/write functions. They obviously care about non-existent blobs and trees, but it seems it ignores checking commits.

And sure, SHA-1 as an argument is probably less than ideal, but I'm not really sure of the best way to handle commits in trees other than that.

Also, pardon my ignorance (not too familiar with building cpan distributions), but I don't see a README on building this code if I were to make changes to the xs files prior to potentially submitting a merge request?
