Checkout all submodules from bare repo?

Question

When I checkout the master branch of my bare repo using

git --work-tree=/path/to/destination --git-dir=/path/to/bare/repo checkout -f

It checks out the entire working branch, but not the contents of the submodules, only the parent directory of those submodules. How can I checkout every submodule to the destination folder?

The command can also checkout submodules to destination. Did you commit and push the submodules into the bare repo? — Marina Liu, Mar 13 '18 at 08:59
