Run Eclipse in WSL2

This gist provides a summary on how to accomplish the following tasks:

  • Access WSL2 using putty
  • Run Eclipse on WSL2 Ubuntu, displaying the Eclipse UI on VcXsrv running on Windows
    • Connecting to VcXsrv directly from WSL2
    • Using SSH X11 forwarding, with network connection initiated from Windows to WSL2 Ubuntu, which is particularly useful on company laptops that refuse all incoming network connections on Windows.
  1. Prerequisites:
    • WSL2 up and running
    • Putty, Plink & PuttyGen installed on Windows

How effectively delete a git submodule.

To remove a submodule you need to:

  • Delete the relevant section from the .gitmodules file.
  • Stage the .gitmodules changes git add .gitmodules
  • Delete the relevant section from .git/config.
  • Run git rm --cached path_to_submodule (no trailing slash).
  • Run rm -rf .git/modules/path_to_submodule (no trailing slash).
  • Commit git commit -m "Removed submodule "
  • Delete the now untracked submodule files rm -rf path_to_submodule
