From 9b4db1bab69b678a13a1d0d2ca74a48626364c93 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joey Hess Date: Mon, 2 Mar 2015 16:43:44 -0400 Subject: Submodules are now supported by git-annex! Seems to work, but still experimental until it's been tested more. When repositories are on filesystems not supporting symlinks, the .git dir symlink trick cannot be used. Since we're going to be in direct mode anyway, the .git dir symlink is not strictly needed. However, I have not fixed the code that creates new annex symlinks to handle this case -- the committed symlinks will be wrong. git annex sync happens to currently fail in a submodule using direct mode, because there's no HEAD ref. That also needs to be dealt with to get this fully working in crippled filesystems. Leaving http://github.com/datalad/datalad/issues/44 open until these issues are dealt with. --- debian/changelog | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) (limited to 'debian/changelog') diff --git a/debian/changelog b/debian/changelog index b5b545ca2..9fd6440f6 100644 --- a/debian/changelog +++ b/debian/changelog @@ -21,6 +21,7 @@ git-annex (5.2015022) UNRELEASED; urgency=medium (This used to be done, but it forgot to do it since version 4.20130909.) * When re-execing git-annex, use current program location, rather than ~/.config/git-annex/program, when possible. + * Submodules are now supported by git-annex! -- Joey Hess Thu, 19 Feb 2015 14:16:03 -0400 -- cgit v1.2.3
