Removing submodules

To remove a submodule you need to:

• Delete the relevant section from the .gitmodules file.
• Stage the .gitmodules changes git add .gitmodules.
• Delete the relevant section from .git/config.
• Run git rm --cached path_to_submodule (no trailing slash).
• Run rm -rf .git/modules/path_to_submodule (no trailing slash).
• Commit git commit -m "Removed submodule <name>".
• Delete the now untracked submodule files rm -rf path_to_submodule.

To add a submodule:

git submodule add https://github.com/HyperDbg/evaluation

Discard changes on a special file:

git checkout hyperdbg/hprdbgctrl/print.cpp

To release (deploy):

Imagine Tag is v0.1.0 (tags should start with the 'v*', and only on the master branch). After that, we will use the following command.

git checkout master
git tag -a v0.1.0 -m "your descriptive comment"
git push origin master v0.1.0

To update submodules:

git submodule update --init --recursive --remote

To remove the effects of 'git add .' without modifying (removing) the changes in the source code (remove the source codes ready for staging):

git reset

To remove the effects of git add . and git commit -m "test" or just git add . without modifying (removing) the changes in the source code:

git reset --soft HEAD~1

To remove all uncommitted and untracked changes in Git and reset your working tree to the last commit:

git reset --hard
git clean -fd

To modify the last pushed commit:

# Undo the last commit but keep the changes in your working tree
git reset --soft HEAD~1

# Make your additional modifications
# edit files...

# Stage everything
git add .

# Create a new commit
git commit -m "Updated commit message"

# Force-push to replace the remote commit
git push --force-with-lease
