The checkout operation failed during the "Persisting credentials for submodules" step when I specified the submodules input parameter to true:

The .gitmodules file in my Git repository:

[submodule "軟體包管理器 Package managers"]
	path = 軟體包管理器 Package managers
	url = https://gitlab.com/libre-knowledge/package-managers.git
	ignore = dirty

I suspect that the bug is triggered by the non-ASCII, space-including submodule name "軟體包管理器 Package managers", but I'm not exactly sure.

I can verify that renaming the submodule name to exclude all non-ASCII characters(libre-knowledge/software-distribution@2761e0b8) workarounds this problem.

Workflow step output:

Not going to rename submodule name because of this, we workaround it by other ways.

This reverts commit 2761e0b.

Another workaround is to implement the submodule checkout manually:
