    The error message is referring to your working copy – not the remote.

    cd /no/git/here
git submodule add foo bar
fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git

    You need to add submodules to a git repo

    cd /my/repos/project-x
git submodule add foo bar
# will work or give a more specific error

    If you just want to get the code so you can use it, you need to clone the repo:

    git clone https://bitbucket.org/hski/issuestats-public.git issuestats
