Thanks for the help.

It works with the changes below.

Paul

I changed the creation of mod_b under mod_B to:

#  add mod_b to mod_B and push the changes back to mod_B

cd $GITDIR/proj_one/mod_B git submodule add $GITDIR/modules/mod_b git commit -m 'add module mod_b under module mod_B for project proj_one' git push

cd $GITDIR/proj_one git add mod_B git commit -m 'reflect module mod_B update for project proj_one' git status

and when I cloned it to:

#  clone the proj_one project (user user_a)

mkdir -p $GITDIR/user_a cd $GITDIR/user_a git clone $GITDIR/proj_one cd $GITDIR/user_a/proj_one

#  get mod_A and mod_B

git submodule init git submodule update

#  now get mod_b in mod_B

cd mod_B git submodule init git submodule update
