title: Using bootstrap with git
body: <p>I'm trying to figure out how git works. I want to use bootstrap as a starting point for all my websites (each project as its own repo). I'd like to pull in bootstrap and update when necessary, but I don't want everything in the bootstrap repo, just the css and js files.</p>
  
  <p>It seems I must do the following:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Create repo.</li>
  <li>Submodule bootstrap.</li>
  <li>Create aliases to the specific files I want.</li>
  <li>Update the submodule when necessary.</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Is this really the only option? Is it not possible to pull just the subfolders I want from a specific repo and update them manually? Also, if my solution is the only way, shouldn't I add the submodule folder to my gitignore file?</p>
