How to get rid of Git submodules untracked status?

Question

I can\'t seem to get rid of untracked content in Git\'s submodules. Running git status yields:

# On branch master
# Changes not staged for commit:
#          


        

Answer 1

In my situation I clone modules as a starting point for a new module in my ZF2 environment. What this does is put its own .git folder into the directory.

Solution in this case is to delete the .git folder (you will likely need to show hidden files to view it).
