Hello everyone, thanks for updating this very useful repository
Upon doing the setup myself I found that there was no built in way to clone the repos over HTTPs instead of SSH. If this is something that we want to add, then I can work on a proper solution in the bash script, as this solution is a bit scrappy.
Essentially I created a clone of the
.gitmodules
file which changes all urls to HTTPs instead named.gitmodules-https
. Then in the instructions, i added a bit of bash to just replace the.gitmodules
file with this one.The disadvantage of this is that it would require 2 updates when adding/deleting new repos. Like I said, I could change the bash to simply scan the
.gitmodules
file and replace thegit@github
with the HTTPs url if we want thisThanks
