carthage update --use-submodules fails with an error

[slabko]

When I'm trying to call carthage update --use-submodules it returns error:

*** Fetching ReactKit
*** Fetching SwiftTask
*** Checking out SwiftTask at "2.6.3"
*** Checking out ReactKit at "0.7.1"
fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git

The Carfile is pretty simple:

github "ReactKit/ReactKit"

I guess your Cartfile is in a non-git working folder.
Make sure you git init first when you want to use --use-submodules option.

Thanks! Thats why --use-submodules actually exist. Sorry for a such strange question :)

No problem 😄
