<p>GitHub offers downloading the source code of any commit, branch or tag directly as a zip-Archive, which is a lot easier than setting up a the git environment escpecially for new devs or people that just would like to MP2 themselves.</p><p>However git submodules are not included within these builds and thus their code is missing and the build fails. Luckily we have only one active submodule in MP2 repository, which is the BuildReport tool. It has been added to the repository before the NuGet approach was introduced.</p><p>By removing the submodule and adding BuildReport as a NuGet package, building the source code from github's zip archives should be possible again.</p>
