emerge-gitclone failed to checkout refs/heads/flatcar-build-2345.3.0

[ofer-tvil]

Hi,

I try to build a kernel module for flatcar-linux container.
I followed this guide:
https://docs.flatcar-linux.org/os/kernel-modules/#prepare-a-flatcar-container-linux-development-container

I see a git checkout error that happens when attempting to checkout refs/heads/flatcar-build-2345.3.0

Can someone check the emerge-gitclone cmd?

Here is the log:

Thanks.
We are already aware of the issue.
So we fixed the issue via flatcar/flatcar-dev-util#2, for Alpha 2430.0.0 and Edge 2430.99.0.
Next Stable and Beta releases are also going to have the fix.

Stable 2345.3.1 was just released, so this issue should be fixed.
If you still see the issue, feel free to reopen it.
Thanks.
