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

This probably happens when you have another .git [hidden folder] inside the particular folder..

modified: ./../.. (modified content, untracked content)

make sure your sub-directory does not contains this .git folder.

If That is the case the issue can be resolved by deleting the .git folder manually from the sub directory.
