From f31a522a2d64a5c7d83047e9234e1722ef63985e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mark Levedahl Date: Sun, 23 Sep 2007 22:19:42 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] git-submodule - allow a relative path as the subproject url This allows a subproject's location to be specified and stored as relative to the parent project's location (e.g., ./foo, or ../foo). This url is stored in .gitmodules as given. It is resolved into an absolute url by appending it to the parent project's url when the information is written to .git/config (i.e., during submodule add for the originator, and submodule init for a downstream recipient). This allows cloning of the project to work "as expected" if the project is hosted on a different server than when the subprojects were added.
