Description Stepan Zebra 2012-04-11 13:36:21 UTC

When performing Git Clone of a project with submodules, the submodule's folders are deleted (or not cloned). Those folders are visibly marked as deleted on command line Git and commiting them leads to a state in which the submodules can't be initialized.

Log: #211012 - Git submodule's folder deleted after clone
better handling of added nested repository/submodule root folders
- ability to add such a folder as gitlink to the index and repository
- after clone/revision checkout such folders should be created but not initialized
- originally were filtered out in status command result, now they appear there as they do on commandline
