During maven deploy, it attempts to move all code into a temp directory, rebuild, and deploy from that temp directory. The rebuilding calls "git submodule update" which breaks if the .git directory has already been cleaned with "-ff" since the submodule configuration is deleted. I keep the default as "clean -xdff" so that keeping the .git directory must be explicitly chosen and does not affect any other code. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
