Yeah, sorry about that. In order to expedite this, I was grabbing code from a work-in-progress branch that included smarter reloading of submodule data based on time stamps of the gitmodules file, etc. and with that it was helpful to have a `force` option to say to reload even if the time stamps indicate the file hasn't changed. I was grabbing code and grabbed the API change without the backend reimplementation that actually supports the flag.

You should pass 0 for the flag, so when it is implemented it will only reload the submodule info if needed.
