i patched the luarocks fetch/git.lua file with
if not fs.execute(git_cmd,'submodule','init')
return nil, "Failed init submodules git repository."
end
if not fs.execute(git_cmd,'submodule','update') then
return nil, "Failed update submodules git repository."
end
it works when run without super user privileges:
luarocks install
https://github.com/lipp/lua-websockets/raw/master/rockspecs/lua-websockets-scm-1.rockspec
--local
executed as super user, it fails
sudo luarocks install
https://github.com/lipp/lua-websockets/raw/master/rockspecs/lua-websockets-scm-1.rockspec
i tracked down the error: sudo git submodule update just not works!
following the git docu, it is not recommended to run git as super user at all.
shouldn't the luarocks fetch operation switch to "normal" user temporarily?
