Hi,
I already have told about that in a comment here <http://git-annex.branchable.com/bugs/submodule_path_problem/#comment-e86330d15b714a41a07b6548fbc79bb2>, but I am not sure it will be seen.
Then here is an official bug report.
### Please describe the problem.
I have a problem with submodules when the git repository is not a submodule everywhere.
For instance, if A is a git annexed repository and B another git repository. If B adds A as submodules. The symlinks added in A as submodule won't work in the original A.
### What steps will reproduce the problem?
# creating the master repository
mkdir annex_master
cd annex_master/
git init
# hack: adding a file to create the master branch
touch start
git add start
git commit -m "start"
cd ..
# create another repository
mkdir annex_sub
cd annex_sub/
git init
# hack: adding a file to create the master branch
touch start
git add start
git commit -m "start"
# it is a annexed repository
git annex init sub
# add the other repository as submodule of the master one
cd ../annex_master/
git submodule add ../annex_sub/ module
cd module/
git annex init sub_module
git annex sync origin
# add an annexed file
echo test > test
git annex add
git annex sync
# go back to the origin repository
cd ../../annex_sub/
git annex sync
ls -l
This returns test -> ../.git/modules/module/annex/objects/w8/pv/SHA256E-s5--f2ca1bb6c7e907d06dafe4687e579fce76b37e4e93b7605022da52e6ccc26fd2/SHA256E-s5--f2ca1bb6c7e907d06dafe4687e579fce76b37e4e93b7605022da52e6ccc26fd2
Actually, the file committed is correct. But the fact it points to '../.git/modules/module/...' makes the link work only if the repository is also a submodule and if this submodule is also located in the modules folder in the parent git repository.
I tried playing with making the repository direct and then indirect, hoping that would fix the symlinks, but it did not work.
