Today I Learned: Git Submodules

Posted at — Nov 13, 2015

A short update about submodules in git.

Git submodules

Let’s start by adding an existing Git repository as a submodule of the repository that we’re working on. To add a new submodule you use the git submodule add command with the absolute or relative URL of the project you would like to start tracking.

git submodule add https://github.com/forcewake/CommandPipeline

By default, submodules will add the subproject into a directory named the same as the repository.
