                Replace directory with git submodule
              
          
    These are the steps required to replace a directory with a submodule in git.  Note: Assumes that you are currently working on branch called 'develop'

Check out a new branch to make the changes on: git checkout -b creating-submodule
delete directory to be replaced rm -rf  path/of/directory/to/be/replaced
git add . then git commit -m "removing local directory"
add the submodule: git submodule add "https://github.com/repoName" path/of/directory/to/be/replaced
git add . then git commit -m "adding submodule"
delete the submodule directory  if you don't do this git will throw a hissy when you try to checkout out develop to merge the changes in
git checkout develop
git merge creating-submodule
