I'm getting this rather coo-coo error when using the Vim package manager
[Vundle][1]'s :PluginUpdate command. If you're not familiar with Vundle, it
lets you update your Vim plugin git packages.
I've narrowed the problem down to the `submodule update` operation. Sure
enough, if I use the same command from Bash, I get the same error:
$ pwd
/home/mastershake/xtian/.vim/bundle/closetag.vim
$ ls -al
total 20K
drwxr-xr-x 4 xtian xtian 4.0K Apr 11 2015 .
drwxr-xr-x 24 xtian xtian 4.0K Oct 24 2015 ..
drwxr-xr-x 8 xtian xtian 4.0K Oct 31 09:05 .git
drwxr-xr-x 2 xtian xtian 4.0K Apr 11 2015 plugin
-rw-r--r-- 1 xtian xtian 1.5K Apr 11 2015 README
$ git submodule update --init --recursive
fatal: /home/mastershake/xtian/Documents.x/Employment.d/Jobs.d:
'/home/mastershake/xtian/Documents.x/Employment.d/Jobs.d' is outside
repository
What's more, any directory (with a git repo) where I perform this same
operation I get the same error. I say it's coo-coo, because the error has
nothing to do with any individual `.git` repo itself.
I'm running ArchLinux. I've not done anything custom. I've just updated as
per usual.
What's git doing, and how do I fix it?
