Hi, I've been seeing this multiple times when switching Git branches on git Git repo: wido@wido-desktop:~/repos/ceph$ git branch firefly hammer jewel * master wido@wido-desktop:~/repos/ceph$ git checkout jewel error: Updating the following directories would lose untracked files in it: src/gmock Aborting wido@wido-desktop:~/repos/ceph$ The gmock submodule is often preventing me from switching branches. Since I don't work with Git submodules that much I usually end up removing the directory and going a submodule update. Is that the good way to go? And am I the only one running into this?
