Mark Waite edited a comment on Bug JENKINS-22510

I've been trying to understand the sequence of git operations which arrive at that state, and haven't yet understood them. My attempts have persuaded me that I don't understand submodules. I used my fork of the git-client-plugin for my experiments.

Clone the repository

git clone git://github.com/MarkEWaite/git-client-plugin
cd git-client-plugin
ls modules/ntp # reports an error, no content in modules/ntp



Checkout tests/getSubmodules





git checkout tests/getSubmodules
git submodule update --init --recursive
ls modules/ntp # Shows there is content in modules/ntp






Checkout master again





git checkout master
ls modules/ntp # reports an error, no content in modules/ntp






Create a branch containing a conflicting file





git checkout -b tests/notSubmodules
mkdir -p modules/ntp
echo "This is not a contribution" >> modules/ntp/CONTRIBUTING.md
