Hi GIT devs,
I really miss the
git submodule remove
command.
This should be handle all the tasks what are needed to remove a submodule.
- Delete the relevant line from the .gitmodules file.
- Delete the relevant section from .git/config.
- Run git rm --cached path_to_submodule (no trailing slash).
- Delete the now untracked submodule files.
These tasks should be handled automatically.
Currently you can only remove a submodule manually, no way to do it
automatically with one command.
"Removing submodules" and "unsubmodule a submodule" are still a pain
to do in GIT, even in v2.3.5.
Please consider implementing the "git submodule remove" command.
Thanks,
Konrad Lorinczi

"git rm <submodule-path>" will remove a submodule from .gitmodules,
the index and the work tree (but not from .git/config, that's what
"git submodule deinit" is for).
