I’m having troubles to clone a submodule that I need (pytorch). So I just downloaded the zip file.

Now, I want to add that unzipped folder as a submodule to my repo.

Usually, I would do:

git submodule add [GIP REPO] [PATH_WHERE_I_WOULD LIKE TO PLACE IT]

Unfortunately, this does not work. Any clues how to solve this? Many thanks!
