       The ssh git clone of gerrit doc repo works fine without submodules.

       With submodules cloning fails using following commands:

      git clone --branch elalto --recursive "https://gerrit.onap.org/r/doc"

#or

git clone --branch elalto --recurse-submodules ssh://$lfid@gerrit.onap.org:29418/doc

       Error Message:

      error: submodule git dir '/home/jakob/test/doc/.git/modules/docs/submodules/appc/deployment.git' is inside git dir '/home/jakob/test/doc/.git/modules/docs/submodules/appc'
fatal: refusing to create/use '/home/jakob/test/doc/.git/modules/docs/submodules/appc/deployment.git' in another submodule's git dir
Failed to clone 'docs/submodules/appc/deployment.git' a second time, aborting

       Basically the problem is that a submodule is created directly in another submodule git direction- which does not seem to be allowed.

      For cloning and building the documentation with submodules locally the module appc/deployment.git can be removed from the conf.py file but thats is not a good workaround.
