Git submodules: can you make local, un-committed edits? -
i've got git submodule in project consists of set of configuration files, need tiny bit of tweaking on per-project basis.
is possible submodules, or doing things wrong way here? don't want commit changes submodule's repository, they're project-specific.
any tips or pointers appreciated.
edit: note these local edits local project, , project needs retain these changes when gets deployed server (using git , fabric).
it possible make local changes, it's not feasible.
git notice submodule has changes, , show you. cannot commit changes submodule in supermodule, because changes not pushed somewhere. when tries checkout submodule, git complain, because can't find commit has recorded submodule.
if it's per project , not per-machine difference, can create branch in submodule repository project specific changes made. these changes can commited submodule , pushed.
you have decide if want these changes part of submodule repository, way can git.
