v4:
* renamed commit_or_tree to treeish_name
* added a test with a tag
* "it will overwrite" (removed the spurious "be").

addressed Jacobs concerns in patch2, fixing all occurrences of commit_sha1.

Thanks,

PATCH v4 1/3 submodule config: inline config_from_{name, path}

There is no other user of config_from_{name, path}, such that there is no reason for the existence of these one liner functions. Just inline these to increase readability.

PATCH v4 2/3 submodule-config: rename commit_sha1 to treeish_name

In reply to Stefan Beller

It is also possible to pass in any treeish name to lookup a submodule config. Make it clear by naming the variables accordingly. Looking up a submodule config by tree hash will come in handy in a later patch.
