Given the following directory structure:
my_project .git app.py
I want to import one of my git repo as a submodule into given project
Let’s create a directory for our modules like this:
mkdir modules touch modules/__init__.py
Adding submodules
Now we can add our remote repository as a submodule
git submodule add {github_repo} {local_path}
Example: git submodule add https://github.com/Kif11/logger modules/logger
Cloning a repo with git submodules
git clone --recurse-submodules {github_repo}
This is equivalent to running
git submodule update --init --recursive
immediately after the clone is finished.
Updating all of the submodule repos
git submodule foreach git pull origin master
Deleting submodule
git submodule deinit modules/logger git rm module/logger
This will delete the submodule from the modules folder and from .gitmodules file.
