There is another way to do this which is a little simpler, however. If you pass--recurse-submodulesto thegit clonecommand, it will automatically initialize and update each submodule in the repository, including nested submodules if any of the submodules in the repository have submodules themsel...

For example: Viewing the history of an item that’s located in a submodule? Not possible. Viewing changes made in submodule (even if by accident)? Not possible. Pulling changes from submodule? Not possible. Switching branch of submodule? Not possible. Solving conflicts in part of submodule?
