After clicking update on a remote branch of gh pages, I received an email from github, "Page crash error".
The submodule 'myGitHubUser.imtqy.com was not correctly initialized with the file' .gitmodules.
Providing a link, https://help.github.com/articles/page-build-failed-missing-submodule/
Following the instructions in this link, I tried,
git submodule init
What is back
The submodule mapping found in .gitmodules for the path 'MyGitHubUser.imtqy.com'
During my research, I found https://support.deployhq.com/articles/common-deployment-errors/no-submodule-mapping-found
Which explains
This happens when the repository uses a submodule that did not have a reference to the original repository created for it. The mapping must be entered into the .gitmodules file inside the repository that you are using.
But at that moment I went further down the rabbit hole than I can track. Can you explain what is going on here at a high level?
