branch: rework comments for future developers
For two cases in which we do not explicitly pass --track=<choice> option down to the submodule--helper subprocess, we have comments that say "we do not have to pass --track", but in fact we not just do not have to, but it would be incorrect to pass any --track option to the subprocess (instead, the correct behaviour is to let the subprocess figure out what is the appropriate tracking mode to use).
