gitk shows:

-------------------------------- modules/pvData --------------------------------
index cdd6980,b903df5..0000000

---------------------------- modules/normativeTypes ----------------------------
Submodule modules/normativeTypes ba33c74..c6168a7 (rewind):

------------------------------- modules/pva2pva -------------------------------
