How would I install all the plugins here as if they were part of my app.yml?  
[https://github.com/discourse/all-the-plugins](https://github.com/discourse/all-the-plugins)  
I tried inserting the command provided in my yml as:

```plaintext
hooks:
  after_code:
    - exec:
        cd: $home/plugins
        cmd:
          - sudo -E -u discourse git clone https://github.com/discourse/docker_manager.git
          - git clone https://github.com/discourse/all-the-plugins.git
        cd: ./all-the-plugins
        cmd:
          - git submodule update --init --recursive

```

But it ended up giving me an error

```plaintext
Pups::ExecError: cd ./all-the-plugins && git submodule update --init --recursive failed with return #<Process::Status: pid 292 exit 2>
Location of failure: /pups/lib/pups/exec_command.rb:112:in `spawn'
exec failed with the params {"cd"=>"./all-the-plugins", "cmd"=>["git submodule update --init --recursive"]}
