I think github no longer supports git@github. It needs https:// or ssh:// urls.

$ git submodule update --init --recursive
Cloning into 'riscv-fesvr'...
Saving password to keychain failed
Permission denied (publickey).
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

github definately still supports SSH URLs.

You don't have a github public key. Here's the first result from Google, which I think should tell you how to setup a SSH key.

You should also be able to do something like

sed s#git@github.com:#git://github.com/#g -i .gitmodules
git submodule sync

to change your authentication method (I use a similar command to set everything to SSH URLs instead of HTTP, so I don't have to learn how to setup HTTP authentication).

To prevent this from happening in the future, we changed the URLs to https with the newest commit 983c3f0.
