Even though this issue was addressed in other posts, I could not find an answer that worked for me.
My Problem: I manually made changes to my .gitmodules file, both adding and removing modules. I would like to my submodules folder to represent those changes.
Approach:
rm -rf submodules/
mkdir submodules/
git submodule update --init --recursive
This seems to do nothing.
I also tried the same with git pull --recurse-submodules and git submodule update --recursive --remote. Still nothing.
Is there a cache entry I have to delete in .git/?
I don't want to use git add xyz manually over and over, pls!
