mr.developer: git submodule init failed
I am receiving a bunch of these messages from a Plone 4.3 buildout that is working on all machines except this one. Latest Plone 4.3, latest mr.developer
The related sources
xmldirector.demo = git [email protected]:xml-director/xmldirector.demo.git xmldirector.crex = git [email protected]:xml-director/xmldirector.crex.git pp.client-plone = git [email protected]:ajung/pp.client-plone.git pp.client-python = git [email protected]:ajung/pp.client-python.git plone.rest = git [email protected]:zopyx/plone.rest.git
can be cloned manually on the same box without issues.
How can on track this down?

Did you try git submodule init after cloning manually? Maybe you already see the error then.
Otherwise, try to add printing of stdout and stderr in the git_init_submodules function in git.py of mr.developer.
If you are sure that you don't need any submodules, you can also set update-git-submodules = never in the [buildout] section of your buildout config.
I am not using submodules but update-git-submodules = never resolved the problem on this box.
Maybe you could change the raise to raise GitError("git submodule init failed.\n%s" % stderr) to see the error message. In case you still want to track it down.
