Hey there, @rawskijon :wave:

Welcome to the Netlify Forums :netliconfetti: It looks like your thread has been a bit quiet since you posted this – sorry about that! Are you still getting the same error and failure message? If you are still having this issue, please let us know what you have tried since you first posted this thread.

Additionally, have you seen some of our other threads covering how to find SHA commits, git submodule, Hugo Theme, and Hugo Academic that are in the Forums? The ones I linked are good places to start!
