How to set up a git project to use an external repo submodule?

Question

I\'d like to create a repo which pulls in a remote repo.

For example, let\'s say jQuery as a submodule:

git://github.com/jquery/jquery.git
         


        

Answer 1

I think that the @Hugo answer could be what you need and works fine. So I have found a easier way.

git submodule update --remote

That's all.

So a complete workflow could be:

git clone project-with-submodules
git submodule init
git config -l
git submodule update --remote
