Submodules & Detached Head Problem

While using Git Submodules, after cloning a submodule, the projects are in detached mode.

Use this link for the resolution

git log --graph --decorate --pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit master origin/master
git log -n 2
git checkout 957833d728b3249d22a3b3160f3a48b72c576d91
git checkout -b temp
git checkout master
git merge temp
# delete branch locally
git branch -d temp

Add a new project in an existing submodule

git submodule add <GitHub Repo Name>

Initialize new submodule

git submodule init
git submodule update 

Clone all projects in submodule

Fetch up to 6 submodules at a time (in parallel) with -j6

git clone --recurse-submodules -j6 https://github.com/nitinkc/spring-microservices.git

git clone --recurse-submodules -j8 https://github.com/nitinkc/SpringBootProjects.git

In case git clone is used on a submodule parent project

git clone https://github.com/nitinkc/spring-microservices.git
cd spring-microservices
## Update all the submodules
git pull --recurse-submodules

In case the projects needs be deleted

git submodule deinit -f -- my-project #provide the project to be removed
git rm --cached my-project                                        

• Delete the entry from .gitmodules file
• Commit and push the changes on github

Cleaning the local .git repo.

• delete the entry from .git/config file
• delete the project folder from .git/modules/<git-project-name>

Instead of this, just commit the .gitmodules changes and re-clone the project
