  • Removing git submodules

    Sep 30, 2017

    Submodules is an advanced git feature. It allows you to have a folder inside your repository which serves as a link to a different repository. Working with submodules is more complicated and I haven’t had a real need for it so far. Last week I had to deal with a codebase which was doing heavy usage of submodules, but without a good reason, so I got rid of them.
