You mean a seperate branch to work in without the submodules linked?
Not really sure how I'd go about doing that.
I'd be more happy with an option to say 'pull_submodules=False'
The code that is run in regards to clearml is really small.
If there's no mechanism on side of clearml, I might consider just putting that codebase into it's own submodule, making it a different repo without knowledge of the others.
just to give an idea about the scale of the problem on my side.
These are the submodules...

Can't I adjust the environment passed to the task, so that it only includes the main repository without the submodules?
Because submodules inside a git are basically a requirement for a git repo to run. Skipping over a few or selecting manually will break the agent. That said maybe shallow clone might be easier or faster. Regardless it should be an environment passed per Task. Feel free to add a GH issue request, if this is not a unique edge case we will add it
Yea, but even though it's cached, it takes quite a long time, because my project has really alot of submodules, due to the submodules having their own submodules as well.
I don't really understand why fetching the submodules is the default.
I double checked the code it's always being passed 😞
None of these submodules are required for the tasks, they are there for a different part of the project dealing with data generation.
So even having them fetched (even when cached) is quite the delay on the actual task.
Well.. I'll guess I'll do the workaround then of putting the main code into a submodule and have everything run from there
Omg that's a lot of submodules!
It has nothing with what the tasks sees if you are inside a git repo you will have to cone it on the remote machine. Let me check in the code maybe you have a workaround
That is quite neat! You can also put a soft link from the main repo to the submodule for better visibility
If there's some or any mechanism that would allow me to constrain what the task sees, it would really help me alot.
Hi @<1694157594333024256:profile|DisturbedParrot38>
You mean how to tell the agent to pull only some submodules of your git?
If this is the case you can actually remove them on your git branch, submodule is a file with a soft link. Wdyt?
Yes I was thinking a separate branch.
The main issue with telling git to skip submodules is that it will be easily forgotten and will break stuff. BTW the git repo itself is cached so the second time there is no actual pull. Lastly it's not clear on where one could pass a git argument per task. Wdyt?
