Git Submodules basic explanation

Git Submodules basic explanation

Why submodules?

In Git you can add a submodule to a repository. This is basically a repository embedded in your main repository. This can be very useful. A couple of usecases of submodules:

  • Separate big codebases into multiple repositories.
var OAuth = require('oauth')
// `npm install oauth` to satisfy
// website: https://github.com/ciaranj/node-oauth
var KEY = "<INSERT KEY HERE>"
var SECRET = "<INSERT SECRET HERE>"
var oauth = new OAuth.OAuth(

Created February 14, 2014 08:32
Create new branch with empty folder structure
You can create a new empty branch like this:
$ git checkout --orphan NEWBRANCH
--orphan creates a new branch, but it starts without any commit. After running the above command you are on a new branch "NEWBRANCH", and the first commit you create from this state will start a new history without any ancestry.
The --orphan command keeps the index and the working tree files intact in order to make it convenient for creating a new history whose trees resemble the ones from the original branch.
Since you want to create a new empty branch that has nothing to do with the original branch, you can delete all files in the new working directory:

AngularJS byte format filter

if (typeof precision === 'undefined') precision = 1;
var units = ['bytes', 'kB', 'MB', 'GB', 'TB', 'PB'],
number = Math.floor(Math.log(bytes) / Math.log(1024));
return (bytes / Math.pow(1024, Math.floor(number))).toFixed(precision) + ' ' + units[number];
}
