如何在gitpython中使用git子模块foreach的变量

Question

Using gitpython , I would like to use repo.git.submodule('foreach', …) and get the variables available such as name , sm_path , displaypath , sha1 and toplevel as defined in the git documentation .

I couldn't find any documentation on gitpython and my understanding of the API is limited.

Thanks to stsewd reply on Github issue, one should write

repo = git.Repo('foo/bar')
for sub in repo.submodules:
    pass

and the documentation: https://gitpython.readthedocs.io/en/stable/reference.html#git.repo.base.Repo.submodules
