I have a git repo at git@someserver.com:some-org/some-repo.git.
I have another git repo at git@someserver.com:other-org/other-repo.git.
I want to add other-repo as a submodule in some-repo.
How do I make the submodule url relative?
I have attempted:
url = ../other-org/other-repo.git
This results in git attempting to fetch
git@someserver.com:some-org/other-org/other-repo.git
which is obviously wrong.
Solution:
url = ../../other-org/other-repo.git
Explanation: the first ../ applied to the URL git@someserver.com:other-org/other-repo.git makes it git@someserver.com:other-org/. The second ../ makes it git@someserver.com:. Then other-org/other-repo.git appended which makes the new URL git@someserver.com:other-org/other-repo.git.
