Hello, I'm sorry it isn't working.
gut has a lot of issues with Git submodules.
Can you confirm that you are launching gut from a nested repository?
All my repos are on a mount in the /data/gitrepos path. I was running the commands from that path. My repos are all cloned in that path.
/data/gitrepos
[/data/gitrepos:]ll

I'm sorry, but gut won't work for that use case.
I'll try to look into it, but it seems quite complex.
For the moment, run gut init from a directory that does not contain any nested git repositories.
