Previously, the git submodule regression check was based on the commit timestamp alone. There are cases where a pull request was branched off an old version of the base branch that would trigger this check, even though the submodule itself was not changed. Now, if the timestamp-based check detects the submodule is out-of-date, the branch's diff is checked as well to see if the submodule was modified.
