Please fill out the bug report template.

Are you able to enter the submodule through the cli, do you have sufficient permissions?

[prihex]

I updated the issue description according to bug report template.

How can i enter the submodule through the terminal. By cd submodule_location or any other specific command? I was generally using vscode for version controlling.

If it is only about changing directory, there is no problem. Everything is okay

Please note the note at the bottom of the report:

**Note:** please try updating to the latest version or [manually building](https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit/#manual) the latest `master` to see if the issue still occurs.

Your version (0.27.4) is 1 year and 5 months old. It's likely the bug was solved in the meantime.

Still getting the error

[mark2185]

Alright, can you run git status in the submodule without problems?

Do the permissions match to the parent repo? (ls -l will list the permissions)

Does it work if you clone the repository once again, somewhere else? Just a git clone --recursive <link> some-other-name should suffice.

[prihex]

• There is no problem at git status
• Permissions are the same as other submodules
• I get the same error in my another project repository that includes submodules

[mark2185]

Do you by any chance use an old ssh key? Something similar on SO

[prihex]

git submodule update --init --recursive works well for me. I can also push and fetch without any problem. Any ssh issue would couse such problems. I also check specified config file owner and read permissions. It seems ok

I tried cloning a public widespread github repo. Same result

git clone https://github.com/ArduPilot/ardupilot.git
cd ardupilot/
git submodule update --init --recursive
lazygit

• Then go to submodules.
• Select modules/uavcan which is the first
• Go to local branches main

[mark2185]

Are the submodules also cloned over https?

Check the .gitmodules file in the root of the repo, it should start with this:

[submodule "modules/uavcan"]
	path = modules/uavcan
	url = https://github.com/DroneCAN/libuavcan.git

[prihex]

Yes. All protocols are https.

prihex@pc:~/projects/test/ardupilot$ cat .gitmodules 
[submodule "modules/uavcan"]
	path = modules/uavcan
	url = https://github.com/DroneCAN/libuavcan.git
[submodule "modules/waf"]
	path = modules/waf
	url = https://github.com/ArduPilot/waf.git
[submodule "modules/gbenchmark"]
	path = modules/gbenchmark
	url = https://github.com/google/benchmark.git
[submodule "modules/mavlink"]
	path = modules/mavlink
	url = https://github.com/ArduPilot/mavlink
[submodule "gtest"]
	path = modules/gtest
	url = https://github.com/ArduPilot/googletest
[submodule "modules/ChibiOS"]
	path = modules/ChibiOS
	url = https://github.com/ArduPilot/ChibiOS.git
[submodule "modules/gsoap"]
	path = modules/gsoap
	url = https://github.com/ArduPilot/gsoap
[submodule "modules/DroneCAN/DSDL"]
	path = modules/DroneCAN/DSDL
	url = https://github.com/DroneCAN/DSDL.git
[submodule "modules/CrashDebug"]
	path = modules/CrashDebug
	url = https://github.com/ardupilot/CrashDebug
[submodule "modules/DroneCAN/pydronecan"]
	path = modules/DroneCAN/pydronecan
	url = https://github.com/DroneCAN/pydronecan
[submodule "modules/DroneCAN/dronecan_dsdlc"]
	path = modules/DroneCAN/dronecan_dsdlc
	url = https://github.com/DroneCAN/dronecan_dsdlc
[submodule "modules/DroneCAN/libcanard"]
	path = modules/DroneCAN/libcanard
	url = https://github.com/DroneCAN/libcanard

Any progress?

[mark2185]

Sadly no, since it's unfortunately not reproducible. At least I can't reproduce it.

Unless you're willing to debug, I'm afraid we can't do much at this point :confused:
