==============================

NAME

----

git-shared-submodule-update - Faster submodule-update by sharing .git directories

SYNOPSIS

--------

[verse]

'git shared-submodule-update' [--init] [--no-dissociate] []

DESCRIPTION

-----------

Simply does submodule-update but faster by `--reference` and locally cached repositories.

On shared-submodule-update, the submodule's remote repository is cloned to a

shared repository under `~/.git-shared-submodule` (configurable) first.

Then

the submodule is updated by `git submodule update` with `--reference` pointing

to the shared repo, making submodule-update faster if you are using same

submodule among many repositories.

OPTIONS

-------

--init::

	Passed to `git submodule update`.

--no-dissociate::

        By default shared-submodule-update passes `--dissociate` to

        submodule-update. This option supresses this behavior.

+

*NOTE*: Do *not* use this option unless you have read the note

for git-clone's `--reference`, `--shared`, and `--dissociate`

options carefully.

CONFIGURATION

-------------

shared-submodule.root::

        The directory under which the shared repositories are cloned. Defaults

        to `~/.git-shared-submodule`. Can be overridden by environment

        variable `GIT_SHARED_SUBMODULE_ROOT`.
