My current Android Application depends on a sub git repo

the folder structure is

/Users/myname/github/main-app
/Users/myname/github/sub-module

My project gradle build file has...


task cloneAndPullSdk {
File dir = new File('../sub-module')

def grgit

if (!dir.exists()) {
grgit = Grgit.clone(dir: dir, uri: 'https://github.com/Organisation/sub-module.git')
} else {
grgit = Grgit.open(dir: '../sub-module')
}

grgit.checkout(branch: sdkBranch, createBranch: false)
}

My gradle build (used to work fine) employs

classpath 'org.ajoberstargrgit1.9.3'

To open the associated git repo

When I refresh gradle and/or clean or build I get this error

* What went wrong:
A problem occurred evaluating root project 'main-app'.
> repository not found: /Users/rossUlbricht/.gradle/daemon/sub-module/.git


Why is GrGit looking in the /.gradle/daemon/ folder for my repo?

How do I configure gradle to enable it to correctly locate my sub module folder location?

and using

dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.buildG3.4.0'
classpath 'org.ajoberstargrgit1.9.3'
// in the individual module build.gradle files
}
