Question: Possibility to ignore git submodules?

[patrijua]

We have a git repository with several submodules. How to configure Fleet NOT to make git submodule update? With current SSH keys provided to Fleet, it does not have access to those submodules thus making container step-git-source to fail. There's no need for Fleet to have access to any of those submodules. It should be possible to configure Fleet not to update submodules. Is this already possible?

I think the resolution of the following issue would solve this one: #583

see #583

I'm currently running into an issue similar to @patrijua. I'm trying to rollout a gitrepo, that has multiple submodules from other git hosts, which gitcloner is not allowed to reach. When cloning the repo, gitcloner runs into a timeout, when recursively cloning the modules.

I don't think it is currently possible to override this behaviour, since #2557 was merged. Gitcloner uses the default recursion depth, without a way to override this setting.
