Subject: Treat submodules as normal directories/files?
Date: Tue, 13 Jul 2010 08:14:51 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100713061451.308580@gmx.net> (raw)

Hi!

Is it possible to treat submodules as normal 
directories/files?

I'm using Git not just for source code, but also for 
documents and my "projects" directory (mainly an
Eclipse Workspace) in my home directory. Though Git
may not be designed for this, it is an easy way do
create a backup and sync my home directory between
my machines :-).

This works fine, except for Git repositories inside my 
home (projects) directory. Is there a way, to treat 
them like normal directories so I can add them via git 
add?

Thank you and thanks for Git, which is just great :-).
