I want to clone the toppra repository inside the toppra-extension repo, and to do so I have my GitLab .gitmodules as follows:
[submodule "toppra_extensions"]
path = toppra_extensions
url = https://gitlab.inria.fr/auctus-team/components/motion-planning/toppra_extensions.git
[submodule "toppra_extensions/toppra"]
path = toppra_extensions/topra
url = https://github.com/hungpham2511/toppra.git
the problem is that: git submodule sync is not synchronizing the toppra submodule, can you please tell me what should I change to make the synchronization automated using .gitmodules? thanks in advance.
>Solution :
toppra_extensions already has toppra as a submodule.
To properly clone your project remove [submodule "toppra_extensions/toppra"] from the superproject’s .gitmodules:
git config -f .gitmodules remove-section submodule.toppra_extensions/toppra
Use git clone --recurse-submodules to clone, git submodule sync --recursive and git submodule update --init --recursive to update.
