Problem:
Easy to forget to clone submodules.
Existing Solutions:
Always clone repos that have submodules with the "--recurse-submodules" option.
Manually look inside the git ".submodules" file to see if there are any submodules and initialize and update them.
Request:
When performing a clone, warn the user if there are any submodules that have not been cloned.
Recommend that the user try the "--recurse-submodules" option next time or initialize and update the submodules.
I don't think warning should be granted in this case. Maybe better as note?
From what you wrote above, did you mean print the message when cloning
any repo with submodules?
