A submodule references a specific commit in another repository. To check out the exact state that is referenced for all submodules, run git submodule update --recursive Sometimes instead of using the state that is referenced you want to update to your local checkout to the latest state of that s...

A submodule is always checked out at a specific commit SHA1 (the "gitlink", special entry in the index of the parent repo) But one can request to update that submodule to the latest commit of a branch of the submodule remote repo. Rather than going in each submodule, doing a git checkout...
