Failed to build latest v2.2.6 about monome-rack

[Dewb]

The paths in this output are confusing. It looks like you’re copying the plugin repo out of the library repo’s submodule into a new folder, maybe?

Unfortunately the tracking info for nested submodules is held in the .git folder of the topmost repo. (Which in your case is the library repo.) So the git paths in my makefile are wrong (first error, I can fix that) but the git describe command is failing (second error, I can’t fix that if the build area is disconnected from the submodule info.)

If that’s the case, though, then the build should never have worked?

From side conversations, it looks like the docker-based build toolchain has always had a nonfatal error with git describe because of the post-git-1.7.8 behavior of moving submodule .git folders to the topmost repo (some background).

#194 fixes the fatal error introduced in 2.2.6 caused by the submodule paths being different when the monome-rack repo is itself a submodule of another repo.
