HI, I was hoping to use this skeleton for a project I am working on but am having some trouble. I will list the steps I have taken and perhaps someone more noligable than me could tell me where I have gone wrong or perhaps how I fix what I have done.

I have cloned the skeleton to my computer. I don't want my changes to be pushed back to your skeleton though so I deleted the .git folder so I could re-initialise it.

I did git init to re-initialise the git repository. I linked it to a repository I created on bitbucket. I staged, committed and pushed everything.

I then did git submodule init and git submodule update but I still don't have the sub modules. In case you are wondering, the .gitmodules file is still present and still has the references to all of the modules I should be getting.

Thanks in advance for any help

Hi, Here is a link to some tutorials on youtube : WordPress and Git: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmw3IgYjTuTZazmvA0RcLaeHh-ykTEEzr. I was a total git noob when I first used this skeleton and found these tutorials very helpful. My apologies if they're a bit beginner-ish but they helped me! :)
