Error compiling arduino8266 framework

While compiling the arduino8266 framework the cloning for the repository is failing. with this error.
Failed to recurse into submodule path ‘tools/sdk/lwip2/builder’

This is the same error presented in:

But I have the latest git for windows installed. I am at the end of my wits. Have been at this for a day and can’t find a solution.
Please help.

You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental
changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this
state without impacting any branches by switching back to a branch.

If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may
do so (now or later) by using -c with the switch command. Example:

  git switch -c <new-branch-name>

Or undo this operation with:

  git switch -

Turn off this advice by setting config variable advice.detachedHead to false

You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental

If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may
do so (now or later) by using -b with the checkout command again. Example:

  git checkout -b <new-branch-name>

You’re running it in a powershell, I ran it in a cmd.exe. For PS you need ; instead of &&. Remove the lwip folder again and retry

Again successful.

You double-cloned lwip there. Go two directories up and remove the lwip folder (rm .\lwip -Recurse -Force or just via Windows Explorer). Then try the 3 commands just in sequence, as it seems it still hasn’t executed them in sequence (no “HEAD at…” output)

OK I know what you mean now. I deleted the lwip dir and rerun the commands.

You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental
changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this
state without impacting any branches by switching back to a branch.

If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may
do so (now or later) by using -c with the switch command. Example:

  git switch -c <new-branch-name>

Or undo this operation with:

  git switch -

So this has worked perfectly… Too bad, if there was an error it would explain why it’s unable to clone it during the normal PIO run. Are there different versions of git being used? What’s the output of git --version in the PowerShell? Still git version 2.26.0.windows.1? Is it able to install it if you retry it a second?

If it’s the same as during the PIO run, I suggest to temporarily uninstall git and install my (old) version. Backup any keys / identities you might need before this, of course. My used version is here (I guess you need Git-2.16.2-64-bit.exe). Double-check that that’s the version running after installation. Does the same error appear again?

git version 2.26.0.windows.1

I will try again with the older version.

I successfully installed the arduino framework with the older version of git. Thanks for all your help.
I never would have fixed this on my own.

Funny how the newest git version has problems with that (when executed in PIO and not on its own…). Maybe a future release of git or PIO will incidently fix it.

And the bug is present (again).
Git 2.27.0 and 2.28.0 for Windows do not work correctly with this.
The submodules are not initialized.
So now I have to go looking for older versions to download to test when it starts working again.
