I had a couple of git submodules that were causing me problems (reference Verify changes in git modules)
I removed the submodules per http://davidwalsh.name/git-remove-submodule.
I then tried to add back the submodule, however, as seen below, am not getting the expected results (actually, they probably are expected, just not for me).
I tried the --force option but that just reverted back to my previous submodules which is not what I want. I also don't wish to change the directory of the submodule as my application uses this path.
How do I add a submodule under this scenario?
[Michael@devserver main]$ pwd
/var/www/main
[Michael@devserver main]$ git status
On branch master
Your branch is ahead of 'origin/master' by 11 commits.
(use "git push" to publish your local commits)
nothing to commit, working directory clean
[Michael@devserver main]$ git submodule add https://github.com/parsecsv/parsecsv-for-php.git application/classes_3rd/parsecsv
A git directory for 'application/classes_3rd/parsecsv' is found locally with remote(s):
origin https://github.com/parsecsv/parsecsv-for-php.git
If you want to reuse this local git directory instead of cloning again from
https://github.com/parsecsv/parsecsv-for-php.git
use the '--force' option. If the local git directory is not the correct repo
or you are unsure what this means choose another name with the '--name' option.
