Sometimes a transient network error prevents git submodule loads from succeeding while building the docs site. Edit the
update_submodules.sh
script to add rudimentary retry logic. Ifgit submodule update
fails, retry the command for up to five attempts, with the time between retries increasing by five seconds each time.This change introduces this approach because it is not possible to configure HTTP request retries in the git config, nor is there a curl environment variable we can set to enable retries in git's
https://
transport.
