Pull git submodules after cloning project from GitHub


I have a project that has specified submodules in it. Everything works well on the dev machine. I have commited .gitmodules file and pulled on the production. However it does not pulled submodules.

If I go into submodule directories and call git pull, nothing happens.

What is the proper way to pull those submodules in the new project ?


Solution

  • From the root of the repo just run:

    git submodule update --init
