I having a problem with my RestKit git submodule. I have a project that is
under git control at a commercial git host. I've been having problems
getting the XCode4 projects working and I just got that working. As a test
I went to a brand new directory and got my source from my remote repository.

All of my source came down, but the RestKit submodule (which I added to my
tree with 'git submodule add git://github.com/RestKit/RestKit.git') was not
there. That makes sense actually, since it is hosted at github, not on my
server.

 $ ls
ReadMe  RestKit apps    doc
$ git submodule status
-f5bfff4b803675a22278a03928b5e829dbc1b4ab RestKit

So I played with git help and it seems that the update command is what I
need to bring the RestKit code down. So I tried it.

$ git submodule update
$ ls RestKit/
$

Notice that I already have a RestKit directory. I'm guessing that this was
checked in as part of my project, or maybe that is just there because the
submodule created it. (I suspect the former.)

How do I get the RestKit code? The submodule add was clearly not correct.

$ git submodule add git://github.com/RestKit/RestKit.git
'RestKit' already exists in the index

Thanks, I appreciate all help, I'm new to git (and RestKit) and the
learning curve has been steep.
