Why do I get "no url found for submodule path" by using sourcetree?

Question

When I tried to clone project, why I get the error like this :

It was said that no url found for submodule path in .gitmodules

Anyway, where is the location file of .gitmodules? How to fix the error? Thanks in advance

Answer 1

As the Git docs says (emphasis mine):

The .gitmodules file, located in the top-level directory of a Git working tree, is a text file with a syntax matching the requirements of git-config.

So if your repository is in C:\Users\Asus\Documents\PDA, the file should be in C:\Users\Asus\Documents\PDA\.gitmodules.

Submodules have a path an a URL; it appears your file defines a submodule without URL. You may want to edit the file to either remove the submodule or add a URL.
