How to list the URL for all Git submodules?

Question

The "git remote get-url origin" can be used to fetch the location of the remote. How do I do the same for all the submodules?

Answer 1

Run the command for every submodule:

git submodule foreach --recursive git remote get-url origin

Answer 2

this works without git submodule update --init

git config --file .gitmodules --get-regexp '\.url$' | awk '{print $2}'

based on List submodules in a Git repository

Answer 3

For a different approach which also illistrates how to get the URL of a single named submodule:

for submodule in $(git submodule | awk '{ print $2 }' | xargs)
do
  git config --file=.gitmodules submodule.${submodule}.url
done
