This is similar to this question but with a slight difference: the git sub-repository is not a part of the parent. Specifically, the main git repository is MagicMirror which allows you to manually import your own custom modules into the program (which are ignored via .gitignore, similar to NPM modules, but manually maintained).

I can download the modules just fine, but calling "git pull" from within their respective repositories calls pull in relation to the main repository and does not update the custom module. I would like to make contributions to the main repository as well as some of the modules.

Is there another way to do this besides symlinks?

It appears as though you don't need to do anything special, it will treat the sub-repository as though it is its own thing. I was misled to think it was only applying 'pull' on the main repository.
