Folks aren't able to clone the repo using the steps in the README due to permissions:

I can't reproduce that.

This is not an issue with the repo itself. As far as I can see, you are trying to clone the repository using the SSH route and you don't have an SSH key set into your Github Account.

We could change the submodule call to use the HTTPS route.

It looks like the steps are using HTTPS which is odd.

@ahoneybun

It is not. Not for the submodule since it has been added with the SSH URL

Ah that's something. Odd.

That's the thing, it isn't odd. that's the way it has been configured.

You could change the URL in the git configurations to make it use the HTTPS URL instead of the SSH. Personally, I prefer to use SSH since it forces the user to have a Github account and configure its environment to code.
