 h2. Tables as gitsubmodules
 
-Some lookup tables are provided through gitsubmodules.
+Some lookup tables are provided through gitsubmodules (s. @.gitmodules@).
 To initialize the submodules do @git submodule update --init --remote@.
+To add a submodule do @git submodule add $repoUrl@.
  To make a @git pull@ also
 update these tables you can e.g. do @git config --local submodule.recurse true@ once and @git submodule update --recursive --remote@ after every @git pull@ ! This is necessary
 to be on the HEAD of the master of the submodules.
