    • Master: Jenkins 1.544, Git Plugin 2.0, Ubuntu 13.10 64bit, OpenJDK 1.7.0_25-b30
      Slave: CentOS 6.5 64bit, OpenJDK 1.7.0_45, Git 1.7.1

      Steps to reproduce
      1. Create a free-style project.
      2. Set "Git Repository URL". The repository specified should use submodules.
      3. In "Additional Behaviours", add "Advanced sub-modules behaviours" and check "Recursively update submodules".
      4. Build it.
      Expected result

      Workspace should have git working tree and submodules.

      [core]
      	repositoryformatversion = 0
      	filemode = false
      	logallrefupdates = true
      

      There is no [remote "origin"] nor [submodule "submodule-name"] sections.

      Workaround

      One of the followings:

      • Downgrade git plugin to 1.5
      • Do not check "Recursively update submodules"
      • Do not checkout git repository with submodules
      • Create a shell build step with: git submodule update --init --recursive
