Convert git submodules to git subtrees
#!/bin/bash -x
# This script will convert all your git submodules into git subtrees.
# This script ensures that your new subtrees point to the same commits as the
# old submodules did, unlike most other scripts that do this.
# THIS SCRIPT MUST BE PLACED OUTSIDE OF YOUR REPOSITORY!!!!!!!!!!
# Otherwise, the script will interfere with the git commits (unless you add it to .gitignore).
# Save the script in your home directory as `~/subtrees.sh`
# `cd` into your repository
# Run `~/subtrees.sh`
# Enjoy!
