How to change the remote repository for a git submodule?

Question

I\'ve created a git repository with a submodule in it. I\'m able to tell the submodule itself to change its remote repository path, but I\'m not sure how to tell the parent

Answer 1

These commands will do the work on command prompt without altering any files on local repository

git config --file=.gitmodules submodule.Submod.url https://github.com/username/ABC.git
git config --file=.gitmodules submodule.Submod.branch Development
git submodule sync
git submodule update --init --recursive --remote

Please look at the blog for screenshots: Changing GIT submodules URL/Branch to other URL/branch of same repository
