I tried to follow the instructions of the previous link when first setting up submodules, though it does not mention how to set up submodules for remote repositories. I now removed the submodule and added it with the link to the remote repository. But the question how I can push my previous commits remains. Therefore, I did the following in the discarded working copy: $git format-patch -2 --stdout > ~/Desktop/cf.patch Next I tried to apply the two commits to the newly set up submodule: $ git am ~/Desktop/cf.patch But ended up with an error message, where a few lines end with ".git/ rebase-apply/patch:LINE_NUMBER: trailing whitespace." and last there is an "error: patch failed: somefile:11 error: somefile: patch does not apply" When I check the status afterwards, nothing has changed and git am -- resolve complains, because nothing has changed. I could not find an explanation for this error.
