#nix question:
In a nix expression, it is not possible to fetch a private git repo via ssh recursively with submodules and also keep the entire clone with .git dirs, right?
· builtins.fetchGit: works with private repos, no option to keep .git
· nixpkgs.fetchgit: allows to keep .git, but no private ssh cloning due to nix' build sandbox
