No submodule mapping found in .gitmodules for path
Solution 1
check that you have the proper setting in .git/modules
as well. Since a few versions ago, git adds an entry there.
Also, the tree probably has a commit object at that path. To get rid of it you can
git rm --cached Classes/lib/AFKissXMLRequestOperation
that should get rid of it once and for all.
Solution 2
Just leaving this here for anyone using git
on Windows. It is possible to follow all of the answers online and still have it not work due to git
's handling of path separators.
E.g.:
My problem case was adding hugo
themes via submodule
:
git submodule add https://github.com/danielkvist/hugo-terrassa-theme.git themes\terrassa
will result in a .gitmodules
like:
[submodule "themes\\terrassa"]
path = themes\\terrassa
url = https://github.com/danielkvist/hugo-terrassa-theme.git
Which will cause problems for git submodule [status || init || ...]
Manually replacing the separators to:
[submodule "themes/terrassa"]
path = themes/terrassa
url = https://github.com/danielkvist/hugo-terrassa-theme.git
...solved it for me.
Also solved the deployment on Netlify since they use *nix server images.

When I run
git submodule update No submodule mapping found in .gitmodules for path 'Classes/lib/AFKissXMLRequestOperation'
But I have no submodule
Classes/lib/AFKissXMLRequestOperation
in current reposMy git config is:
[core] repositoryformatversion = 0 filemode = true bare = false logallrefupdates = true ignorecase = true precomposeunicode = false [remote "origin"] fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/* url = [email protected]:why_ios.git [branch "master"] remote = origin merge = refs/heads/master [submodule "External/ios-SDNestedTable"] url = [email protected]:why/ios-SDNestedTable.git [submodule "External/PSStackedView"] url = [email protected]:why/PSStackedView.git
and .gitmodules is:
[submodule "External/ios-SDNestedTable"] path = External/ios-SDNestedTable url = [email protected]:why/ios-SDNestedTable.git [submodule "External/PSStackedView"] path = External/PSStackedView url = [email protected]:why/PSStackedView.git
