Re: Recursive submodule confusing output (bug?)

[Will Entriken]

Hello,

I am running:

    git submodule update --recursive

And get the output:

    Submodule path 'Submodules/evernote-ios-sdk': checked out
'391ca643c5b1cd02e9fa869a6b0760436ea452ed'
    Submodule path 'Submodules/facebook-ios-sdk': checked out
'ada467f754febd4f2871d15943e9be16b323f114'
    Submodule path 'Submodules/objectiveflickr': checked out
'f474a78c807b5fa0c887bf8efaead5be1da637ec'
    Submodule path 'Submodules/sskeychain': checked out
'8252a69cdfea562223d4dc2e2ccaf01b752d2cc6'

This is a little confusing to me, would this be more appropriate?

    Submodule path 'Submodules/ShareKit/Submodules/evernote-ios-sdk':
checked out '391ca643c5b1cd02e9fa869a6b0760436ea452ed'
    Submodule path 'Submodules/ShareKit/Submodules/facebook-ios-sdk':
checked out 'ada467f754febd4f2871d15943e9be16b323f114'
    Submodule path 'Submodules/ShareKit/Submodules/objectiveflickr':
checked out 'f474a78c807b5fa0c887bf8efaead5be1da637ec'
    Submodule path 'Submodules/ShareKit/Submodules/sskeychain':
checked out '8252a69cdfea562223d4dc2e2ccaf01b752d2cc6'

Please let me know if this is something I may fix.

Thank you,
William Entriken

Yes. (I assume from the output that you have a submodule named
"Submodules/ShareKit/" in the superproject which itself contains
those four submodules inside another "Submodules" directory)

Sure, go ahead! (I just checked, cmd_update() is the only function
in git-submodule.sh without prefix handling; see cmd_foreach() for
an example of how to do that). And - if you're not already familiar
with it - you'll find a detailed description on how to prepare your
fix in "Documentation/SubmittingPatches".
