title: Can’t get submodules to work in gitlab
body: <p>I have a project in my computer with the following structure:</p>
  
  <pre><code>.
  ├── bin
  ├── code
  │ └── src
  ├── data
  ├── doc
  ├── experiments
  └── reports
  └── summary
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>code/src and /reports/summary are submodules defined in .gitmodules</p>
  
  <pre><code>[submodule "code/src"]
  path = code/src
  url = ./code/src/
  
  [submodule "reports/summary"]
  path = reports/summary
  url = /home/zunbeltz/Proyectos/reports/base/
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I created a project in the gitlab of my workplace (version 7.9.4). After adding the new origin and 
  git push -u origin master
  The links of the submodules are broken with a 500 error code.</p>
  
  <p>I tried also in gitlab.com, (version 7.14) and I get a 404 error</p>
  
  <p>Does someone know what is going here?</p>
  
  <p>Note: I did post this message on the gitlab forum, but have any answer. </p>
