Adding my tq84 branch to github repositories
git clone https://github.com/ReneNyffenegger/forked-repo
cd forked-repo
git branch
What does the following do? Probably, it only seems to be necessary when checking out the personal fork to use the tq84 branch(?)
git branch -a
Create the tq84 branch
git checkout -b tq84
cd foo/bar/baz
git submodule add https://github.com/ReneNyffenegger/tq84-c-debug
Go back to the repositories root
cd ../../..
Note the added .gitmodules file:
git status .
Commit:
git commit . -m "Added submodule tq84-c-debug"
Push tq84 branch
git push -u origin tq84
Synchronizing forked repo from original repository
cd forked-repo
git checkout master
git pull https://github.com/OriginalOwner/repo
git push https://github.com/ReneNyffenegger/forked-repo master
git checkout tq84
git merge master
Cloning on anther machine
After cloning, the tq84 branch seems not visble expcept when using git branch -a.
git branch -a
Neverttheless, it seems it can be checked out:
git checkout tq84
Empty submodule ...
Apparently, the submodule can still be empty on another machine.
The following git command might help:
git submodule update --init --force --remote
