Just FYI in case anyone else comes across this. I decided not to use submodules after all, but simply cloned the repo as a pipeline step, and then overrode the BUILDKITE\_REPO var with the hook mentioned in [another thread](https://forum.buildkite.community/t/overwrite-default-environment-variables-e-g-buildkite-repo-via-pipeline-upload/1455/3).
