external/expecta submodule reference is broken

[tonyarnold]

Hey guys, I can't do a clean checkout of RAC at the moment, as the expecta submodule appears to have come unhinged:

➜  ReactiveCocoa  git submodule update --init --recursive 
Submodule path 'external/expecta': checked out '4cee0c92acc4fad2c908a49bee910d408ed43199'
fatal: reference is not a tree: 58126ef0ee2d9dcc515bf1697ea4ac225bc57397
Unable to checkout '58126ef0ee2d9dcc515bf1697ea4ac225bc57397' in submodule path 'external/specta'

Is this something I can fix, or is it something that needs to be addressed in the repo?

Have you tried a git submodule sync? Changing the URL of submodules causes nastiness – it really sucks.

[tonyarnold]

I have, yes — the same issue still occurs.

[jspahrsummers]

That commit definitely exists in the repo: github/specta@58126ef

@joshaber Any ideas?

[tonyarnold]

Is the same thing happening for anyone else on a fresh checkout?

Clean clone worked fine for me. I did run a git submodule sync before trying to clone the submodules though.

[tonyarnold]

Yeah, a fresh clone works fine for me now. Connectivity issues? I don't know. Sorry for the confusion, guys :)
