Recursively checks out any submodules in your repository.

steps: - name: Checkout repository uses: actions/checkout@master - name: Checkout submodules uses: textbook/git-checkout-submodule-action@master

New in version 2.1.0. You can optionally set the --remote flag:

steps: - name: Checkout repository uses: actions/checkout@v2 - name: Checkout submodules uses: textbook/git-checkout-submodule-action@master with: remote: true

• You can use the submodules input to the checkout action:

  steps: - name: Checkout repository and submodules uses: actions/checkout@v2 with: submodules: recursive

• just run the command directly:

  steps: - name: Checkout repository uses: actions/checkout@v2 - name: Checkout submodules run: git submodule update --init --recursive

• or use git Actions instead:

  steps: - name: Checkout repository uses: actions/checkout@v2 - name: Checkout submodules uses: srt32/git-actions@v0.0.3 with: args: git submodule update --init --recursive
