From 4b7c286ec74c7bb88e9e7ac2d283d86f64b6b0ea Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jens Lehmann Date: Sun, 30 Sep 2012 23:01:29 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] submodule add: Fail when .git/modules/ already exists unless forced When adding a new submodule it can happen that .git/modules/ already contains a submodule repo, e.g. when a submodule is removed from the work tree and another submodule is added at the same path. But then the work tree of the submodule will be populated using the existing repository and not the one the user provided, which results in an incorrect work tree. On the other hand the user might reactivate a submodule removed earlier, then reusing that .git directory is the Right Thing to do. As git can't decide what is the case, error out and tell the user she should use either use a different name for the submodule with the "--name" option or can reuse the .git directory for the newly added submodule by providing the --force option (which only makes sense when the upstream matches, so the error message lists all remotes of .git/modules/). In one test in t7406 the --force option had to be added to "git submodule add", as that test re-adds a formerly removed submodule.
