Git clone not pulling latest submodules by default

[cappelaere]

This may be an obvious one for some but you do not get the latest
submodules when you git clone express.
example:
>git clone https://github.com/visionmedia/express.git
>cd express
>git submodule init
>git submodule update
>git submodule status

I was under the assumption that I would be getting the latest
submodules as the github gui may show.

You need to go into each submodule and git checkout master. There
ought to be a better way of doing this... right?
This does fix the problem with the plus sign in x-www-form-urlencoded.
Thanks TJ.

hmm you should be able to $ git submodule update --init

That's what I was initially doing but was getting the same results.

I am wondering if the submodules version numbers are not hardcoded in the project…?

Pat.

no version numbers just the shas but they should be fine unless i accidentally have them pointing to my private url or something

slowly moving my projects to utilize npm's devDependencies. not 100% happy on dev deps having anything to do with a package manager, but it's a bit annoying to track down modules on github
