Downloading the Source Code
The PowerShell repository has a number of other repositories embedded as submodules.
To make things easy, we can just clone recursively:
git clone --recursive https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell.git
If you already cloned but forgot to use --recursive
, you can update submodules manually:
git submodule update --init
See working with the PowerShell repository for more information.
