git submodule update not working on macOS

[stephanschulz]

I get the following access rights issue when following the Quick Start guide. Do I need to fork the add-on first?

We don’t have control of that. It could just have been a hiccup on the github servers and when it happens, I usually wait and try again later.

Is this resolved by now?

[stephanschulz]

I just tried it again and still gives me the same error. But downloading the cpp directly and placing is in the cpp folder works.

[danomatika]

Can you try the following?

1. edit .gitmodules and change: git@github.com:serizba/cppflow.git -> https://github.com/serizba/cppflow.git
2. run:

   git submodule deinit -f libs/cppflow
   git submodule update --init --recursive
   git submodule sync

[stephanschulz]

thanks for continuing to pay attention to this :)

I edited the .gitmodules. I do not sure what to do with "2. run"

calling git submodule deinit -f libs/cppflow produces an error. see screenshot

[danomatika]

"git run" is not a command. The "2. run" in my previous post is an instruction to run the code which is quoted underneath in the Terminal.

Looking at your Terminal output, you indeed ran git deinit successfully once. The error comes from running it again when the submodule has already been deinitialized. To continue, run the next two commands:

git submodule update --init --recursive
git submodule sync

[danomatika]

Also, if you manually copied the files in, you may need to manually remove the folder before running update.

[danomatika]

I think I know the issue. I bet the system you are cloning on does not have SSH keys which are copied to your Github account. The submodule is using git@github.com so it will try to use SSH for authentication. In any case, I will update the submodule url to https and make a 1.4.1 release.

[stephanschulz]

I will try the rest of the commands in a few days when I am back at home.

[stephanschulz]

yes this works. thank you

[danomatika]

Thanks for the confirmation. Now fixed in main and 1.4.1 tag.

[danomatika]

Thanks for confirming.
