You can inspect what was checked out with 'git status'
and retry with 'git restore --source=HEAD :/'

or, it fails when doing a mirror clone:

git clone --origin=origin --mirror https://github.com/apple/swift /tmp/swift
Cloning into bare repository '/tmp/swift'...
error: RPC failed; HTTP 400 curl 22 The requested URL returned error: 400
