A recent(-ish) change in git [1] has exposed a bug in caching that
appears in one very specific circumstance -- updating the
openstack/openstack super-repo [2].
This repo gets a submodule update every time something is pushed. By
using "--git-dir" while the cwd is one-level above the actual repo we
are confusing [1] which is not finding the submodule directories
correctly and giving us an error:
Could not access submodule 'foo'
for every submodule that has updated between now and the last time we
updated the cache. [3]
The git manual does warn about this
If you just want to run git as if it was started in <path> then use
git -C <path>.
Indeed, that is what we want to do in this path. Modify the calls to
use -C.

[3] The result for opendev production is that image builds fail every
time an openstack/* project is checked in; we then race to retry
the build before another commit lands and updates the submodules
again.

Image building tools for OpenStack
diskimage-builder is a flexible suite of components for
building a wide-range of disk images, filesystem images and ramdisk
images for use with OpenStack.
This repository has the core functionality for building such images, both virtual and bare metal. Images are composed using elements; while fundamental elements are provided here, individual projects have the flexibility to customise the image build with their own elements.
For example:
$ DIB_RELEASE=bionic disk-image-create -o ubuntu-bionic.qcow2 vm ubuntuwill create a bootable Ubuntu Bionic based qcow2
image.
diskimage-builder is useful to anyone looking to produce
customised images for deployment into clouds. These tools are the
components of TripleO that are
responsible for building disk images. They are also used extensively to
build images for testing OpenStack itself, particularly with nodepool.
Platforms supported include Ubuntu, CentOS, RHEL and Fedora.
