Subject: [BUG] `git submodule update --init --recursive` stores gitdir in full path into `.git` of nested submodules
Date: Wed, 30 Mar 2016 18:03:25 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <F89ED33B-E33D-4693-8559-4255727B78B8@gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

`git submodule update --init --recursive` stores `gitdir` in full path into `.git` of nested submodules.
So, working directory is not portable to another directory.

On following example, `Carthage/Checkouts/Quick/Externals/Nimble/` is nested submodule and `Carthage/Checkouts/Quick/Externals/Nimble/.git` contains full path.

Thanks,
