Working with Git Sub-Modules - Video

Git sub-modules are so useful, yet still so painful to work with.
A recent survey showed that 9 out of 10 people were looking for "How do I remove changes to a git sub-module when doing git bisect" on Google.
(OK, I admit there are no such surveys. Still, it's a very real problem!)

In this episode I'll show how to work with sub-modules, and especially how to cope with changes coming in from sub-modules.

I'll also discuss the issues of switching branches or doing a git bisect when your project contains sub-modules.

6:55 Nuno pulls a version and get a weird message
11:01 Understanding the error message
12:18 Jesper add welding under water - git submodule --recurce
15:45 git config --global submodule.recurse true
16:17 bisecting - now you have modified files...
19:58 git config --global push.recurseSubmodules no
22:23 hmm these two settings are super slow
23:47 The key points
