Can `shallow_clone=True` work with Git submodule?

Hi,

My project need to clone submodule for build.
When I enabled shallow_clone=True, I got below error

git submodule update --init --recursive
fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
Command exited with code 128
Build failed

I want to confirm that shallow_clone can associate with Git submodule or not?
Warm regards,
Thanh

    If this downloaded the zip file, so there is no .git folder as error message

    You are correct that this will not work... and furthermore, GitHub doesn't include submodules in repo zip packages.
