+==== Sub Module ====
+A sub module creates a link to another Git repository.
+<code>
+# Allow the use of file paths
+git config --global protocol.file.allow always
+# Add the other repo as a submodule
+git submodule add /Users/nitin/Documents/practice/try_git_child_1 child_1
+# Subsequently, fetch the changes from the submodule
+git submodule update --remote
+# When someone wants to clone the parent repo
+git -c protocol.file.allow=always clone --recurse-submodules /Volumes/path/to/repository
+</code>
+==== Sub Tree ====
+A subtree is essentially a copy. The parent repository does not have any reference to the path of the child repository (therefore all the "git subtree" commands require the path to the child repository).
+<code>
+# Add/Push/Pull
+git subtree add/pull/push --prefix child_1 /Users/nitin/Documents/practice/try_git_child_1 main
+</code>
+==== Git Checkout Subdirectory ====

+git sparse-checkout set --no-cone /subdir1 /subdir2 /subdir3
