-When cloning submodules, a .gitmodules file in the top-level directory
+When initializing submodules, a .gitmodules file in the top-level directory
 of the containing repository is used to find the url of each submodule.
 This file should be formatted in the same way as $GIR_DIR/config. The key
 to each submodule url is "module.$path.url".
