When using version control systems such as Git, the precision and accuracy of timestamps hold significant importance for effective collaboration and project management. This blog presents two distinct methods to acquire comprehensive timestamps in the context of Git and GitHub. These methods offer users flexibility based on their workflows and preferences.

We will explore the process of updating a git submodule. Git submodules are repositories that are embedded within a parent Git repository. This allows us to work with multiple repositories simultaneously. We will learn how to make changes to a submodule, commit the changes, and then push them to the submodule's Git repository. Finally, we will pull those changes from our main project repository

In this tutorial, you will learn how to update git submodules using the git command. The git submodule foreach command can be used to run commands on each submodule. We will use this functionality to pull changes from each submodule repository. When managing large Git repositories, submodules often include external repositories as dependencies within the main project. Git helps us maintain a reference to each of these submodules inside the .gitmodules file. Keeping these submodules up-to-date ensures your project benefits from the latest changes and improvements in upstream Git repositories.
