If there is a thing that will make me rage quit the industry, it's going to be #git or more accurately git submodules.

@jeffpc Me too. A half implemented feature where they only did the "easy" parts.

@timfoster Amen.

Who on earth ever thought that the following is a sane behavior?!

$ git checkout --recurse-submodules $branch

$ git rebase master

$ echo $?

0

$ git status

<bunch of submodules still checked out at old commits even though the top-level commits point to the correct/new submod commits>

Of course, I didn't notice this and lost almost an hour building an inconsistent source tree.

Git is a liability.

@jeffpc I

Proper submodule rebase is on the critical path for one of the projects I'm working on, so hoping to make this better soon.

@richlowe @jeffpc I've been procrastinating about this one for ages. Literally every other project is more attractive than it, please distract me!
