How to add a submodule with nested submodules?
When I do the following only the root submodule is added. How to add all submodules in the submodule recursively?
git submodule add https://the-submodule.git path/to/submodule
In the above submodule there is a nested submodule and the folder is not even created after cloning
path/to/submodule <- root submodule
path/to/submodule/nested-submodule <- nested submodule (folder not even created)
The main project is on github and the submodule is gitlab (with including nested submodules)
CodePudding user response:
After cloning you have to init recursively with
git submodule update --init --recursive
This will do what you want
