To remove a submodule you need to:

Delete the relevant line from the .gitmodules file.
Delete the relevant section from .git/config.
Run git rm --cached path_to_submodule (no trailing slash).
Commit and delete the now untracked submodule files.

When developing an application where you have split out shared functionality to multiple dependent gem repositories can get cumbersome when you

• need to edit the Gemfile in order to swap local :path sources with :git or just plain Rubygems sources,
• then forget to bundle update,
• wonder why your git repository is dirty and it's just the modified Gemfile and Gemfile.lock,
• accidentally commit the Gemfile.lock with local :path sources bundled etc. etc.

So what about this strategy:

A. Create a file .Gemfile.local containing:

Share Counts

I have always struggled with getting all the various share buttons from Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus, Pinterest, etc to align correctly and to not look like a tacky explosion of buttons. Seeing a number of sites rolling their own share buttons with counts, for example The Next Web I decided to look into the various APIs on how to simply return the share count.

If you want to roll up all of these into a single jQuery plugin check out Sharrre

Many of these API calls and methods are undocumented, so anticipate that they will change in the future. Also, if you are planning on rolling these out across a site I would recommend creating a simple endpoint that periodically caches results from all of the APIs so that you are not overloading the services will requests.
