Trying to host on github

I’m following a doc here [0] and am getting the following error:

[adam@spark kabads.monkeez.org]$ git submodule add -b master       `git@github.com:kabads/kabads.github.io.git public`
    Cloning into '/home/adam/website/kabads.monkeez.org/public'...
    warning: You appear to have cloned an empty repository.
    fatal: 'origin/master' is not a commit and a branch 'master' cannot be created from it
    Unable to checkout submodule 'public'

This is a Git issue, and this forum is about helping with Hugo. Kindly suggesting that you get help with the Git community.

Closing since this is OT.
