[yocto] How to execute a git submodule init/update?

[Fred Ollinger]

 $ git submodule init

 $ git submodule update


Also, there's git submodule foreach which allows you to do the same thing to each submodule (such as checkout a different branch).

I have a git source which need some submodules. For that I need to execute "git submodule init" and "git submodule update". Any idea how to do it in a comon way?

Use the gitsm: fetcher, which will do that for you.
