Hi,
I'm having some issues with cloning geonetwork submodules due to firewall
issues.
The port which "git" protocol uses (9418) is blocked by our firewall
policies. So, when I try to do a clone to the project I use the "https"
protocol instead of the "GIT" protocol. (git clone --recursive
https://github.com/geonetwork/core-geonetwork.git), but I can't receive the
files in from submodule, as they use the git protocol, so I receive a broken
clone.
I would like to suggestion that you use https for the .gitsubmodule file.
From what I can tell the submodule aren't that big, so the git protocol
(which is faster) is probably not really required, and it would avoid a lot
of problems for other users.
For now, as a workaround, I'm was able to to edit the .gitsubmodules
(changing all the "git://" to "https://") and do a "git submodule sync". I
had a few issues updating the submodules afterwords but finally got it
working. This is kind of a nuisance that I would not like to have to repeat
each time I create a clone.
Any chance on changing this?
Thanks.
