## Git Submodules support

When an app is built from a .git URL like this:

convox build [https://github.com/org/repo.git](https://github.com/org/repo.git)

submodules will be updated after the clone. This is accomplished by the builder running:

`git submodule update --init --recursive`

- [#2167](https://github.com/convox/rack/pull/2167) Update Submodules when building from git [[@mattmanning](https://github.com/mattmanning)]

## ECS Specific Account Events

In the interest of further limiting API throttling, this update limits the CloudWatch Event rule to only ECS events. In the future, specific events can be added when needed.

Unfortunately `eu-west-2` does not support ECS events, so the region will lose the ability to view ECS events in app logs for the time being.

- [#2170](https://github.com/convox/rack/pull/2170) limit account events to specified resources [[@MiguelMoll](https://github.com/MiguelMoll)]
