Description

@amrsoll

Would be suuper cool to support nested submodule path overrides

clone:
  git:
    image: woodpeckerci/plugin-git
    settings:
      recursive: true
      submodule_override:
        first_submodule_path: <url for first_submodule_path>
        # The following does not apply when git recurses into first_submodule_path
        first_submodule_path/other_dir/nested_submodule: <url for nested_submodule>

I am trying to override the github url of my submodules to a local git server

Example output:

+ git submodule update --init --recursive
