GoCD cloning git repository with submodule

[Shivani Shinde]

Hi all,

For a lot of time, I have been using bash scripts to generate builds(clone the repo and execute commands). Now I want to try a different approach:

1. Mention git repository in Materials.
2. Added tasks to generate the build.

While I mention the materials, I get the following error:

Error performing command: --- Command ---
git submodule init
--- Environment ---
{}
--- INPUT ----
 
 
--- EXIT CODE (128) ---
--- STANDARD OUT ---
 
--- STANDARD ERR ---
STDERR: fatal: No url found for submodule path 'store/include/common' in .gitmodules
---

Now, for the repository I am trying to clone, I do not want git submodule init to execute.

How can I change any settings or what should I do, due to which this command won't run? 

NOTE: When I used the bash scripts and cloned this repo, I never got such an error. And I also have other repositories which clone without any such error.

Any help will be appreciated!

Thank you!

There's no way to not pull submodules. Usually you'd expect submodules to be valid. If not valid, can it be removed?
