`!` reduces the tree to submodules with issues (or unknown state) plus their ancestors, reusing the filter's reduction. Adds docs/actions.md as a draft spec for restore and stage pin. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 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.
|
|
|
|
## Documents
|
|
|
|
| Document | Contents |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| [requirements.md](requirements.md) | What the tool must do: functional and non-functional requirements |
|
|
| [state-model.md](state-model.md) | How a submodule's state is determined, summarized into issues, and how pins are resolved to refs |
|
|
| [ux-guide.md](ux-guide.md) | Layout, attention hierarchy, colors, wording, navigation and key bindings |
|
|
| [architecture.md](architecture.md) | Package layout, the provider boundary, async loading, testing |
|
|
| [actions.md](actions.md) | **Draft:** the write actions restore and stage pin |
|
|
| [decisions.md](decisions.md) | Decision log with rationale (ADR style) |
|

|
## Install
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
curl -fsSL https://git.simon-franken.de/simonfranken/submarine/raw/branch/main/install.sh | sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
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](architecture.md#distribution)).
|
|
|
|
## Status
|
|
|
|
**Prototype.** The UI is complete for browsing. It reads real repositories
|
|
through a git provider (`internal/submodule/git`): `submarine [dir]`. It
|
|
fetches in the background on startup (`--no-fetch` to skip; `f` to fetch
|
|
again) and follows changes made in other shells. `submarine --mock` shows
|
|
the built-in mock data (`internal/submodule/mock`). `!` shows only
|
|
submodules with problems. The actions `u` and `b` only show a "not
|
|
implemented" message ([drafts of the write actions](actions.md)).
|
|
|
|
Next steps, roughly in order:
|
|
|
|
1. Actions: checkout pin (`submodule update`), bump pin to tip, init.
|
|
2. (done) "Problems only" (`!`) view, reusing the tree's filter.
