Description
Currently,
BUILDKITE_GIT_SUBMODULEis only configurable via Agent config or during Agent Start, leaving options to disable cloning submodules limited to having plugins to change checkout which can be problematic. So allowing the use of the changingBUILDKITE_GIT_SUBMODULEEnvironment Variable at the Pipeline/Step level or via Hook, allows more flexible and removes need to seek alternative approachs.Agents config takes precendence in the cases that
no-git-submoduleshas already been set.Context
