b opens a centered popup with a search line and the local and remote branches of the selection. Enter stages the branch tip as the pin of a submodule, restores it (and everything below) to it, and puts HEAD on the branch; a remote branch gets a local tracking branch unless one exists elsewhere. Works on the superproject too. Losses are asked like restore. The backdrop behind the popup is dimmed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
submarine — documentation
submarine is a terminal UI for git repositories with many (recursively nested)
submodules. It shows the submodules, as a collapsible tree (plus the state
of the superproject itself in the header), and
describes each pin as a branch plus distance (origin/main ↓1) instead of a
bare commit hash.

Installs submarine and the alias sub (linux/macOS, amd64/arm64) to
~/.local/bin. Update with submarine update. Maintainers publish with
GITEA_TOKEN=… make release (see architecture).
Status
Prototype. The UI is complete for browsing. It reads real repositories
through a git provider (internal/submodule/git): submarine [dir]. It
fetches only when asked (f) and follows changes made in other shells. submarine --mock shows
the built-in mock data (internal/submodule/mock). ! shows only
submodules with problems. x restores the selection and b switches its
branch (actions.md); stage pin is drafted there.
Next steps, roughly in order:
- Stage pin, see actions.md. (Restore and switch branch are done.)
- (done) "Problems only" (
!) view, reusing the tree's filter.
