I want to collect some dot files in one folder and keep it on GitHub.
So, dotfiles directory for me is .vim.
I moved .xmonad folder there as well. But unfortunately, when I wanted to copy my environment to other computer, I realized that .vim/xmonad/ is empty in my GitHub repo.
git add xmonad doesn't do anything.
git add xmonad/* gives the following error:
fatal: Path 'xmonad/get-volume' is in submodule 'xmonad'
Per this thread (Unable to track files within Git submodules), I checked my submodules, deleted .git file from xmonad directory, but nothing helps.
