That page says, just above the command you're trying:
"You want to fork each project and add it as a submodule to your
project"
which you should read as
"At this point, you should have a Git project (i.e. repository) of
your own, and you can add our projects as subprojects of yours"
which probably implies that you should read some Git tutorial to learn
how to deal with your own project before trying to understand
submodules ;-).
