Executing commitLock in subfolder (not root scm)

[tlmurphy]

Is there a way to get commitLock to work in a subfolder of a git project? The root project is not gradle, but a sub folder contains a gradle project. This sub folder does not contain a .git folder. Currently getting RepositoryNotFoundException due to not being in the directory of the .git folder I'm guessing.

rootProj/
  .git/
  subFolder/
    build.gradle
    build/
      dependencies.lock

Do we have a resolution for this yet?
