Using "git-submodule". I need to add a shared components repository as a submodule.
Expected outcome:
Using "git-submodule". Our build fails because submodule files are missing after clone.
Expected outcome:
Using "git-submodule". We want to convert a submodule into normal project files.
Expected outcome:
The reported Ruby and shell execution hits are Markdown fences or inline code in documentation, not executable Ruby or hidden shell evaluation. Hardcoded URLs are Git examples and reference links, and the filesystem findings are visible submodule workflow examples with scoped relative paths. No prompt injection, exfiltration intent, or hidden execution logic was found.

Add a shared repository as a submodule and commit the parent repository reference correctly.
Configure clone and CI workflows so nested dependencies are available during builds.
Remove or convert an old submodule while preserving the intended project files.
Help me add a Git submodule for this repository. Ask for the repository URL, target path, and branch or tag before giving steps.
I cloned a repository that uses submodules. Give me the safest steps to initialize and verify all submodules.
Guide me through updating one or more submodules, reviewing the changes, and committing the parent repository reference.
Help me plan a submodule removal or conversion. Include verification steps, backup checks, and warnings for destructive cleanup commands.
