Description
When we have created a submodule using the absolute URL, the submodules are usually checked out correctly but if this settings is changes to use the relative paths, it fails with eerrors like:
Caused by: com.atlassian.bamboo.plugins.git.GitCommandException: command 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin\git.exe' submodule update --init --recursive failed with code 1.

My .gitmoduless looks like:
[submodule "new"] path = new url = ../new.git
This got translated to d:/atlassian/BAMBOO/atlassian-bamboo-4.4.5/HOME/xml-data/build-dir/new.git instead of https://github.com/smaiyaki/new.git. I understand that the submodule does not yet support the relative path and we believe this will be a good alternative for users.
workaround
- Disable submodules
- crate a script task right after the checkout task to run the following commands
git remote add origin https://github.com/smaiyaki/new.git git submodule update --init --recursive git remote remove origin
Another painful workaround would be to add additional checkout tasks for each of the submodule
