Git 2.8 fails to update submodules
I am trying to build gRPC inside a docker image, but updating the submodules is failing when using git version 2.8. Specifically this Dockerfile:
FROM alpine:3.3
RUN apk update && apk add git
RUN git clone -b 'v1.17.1' --depth 1 https://github.com/grpc/grpc
RUN git --version
RUN cd grpc && git submodule update --init --depth 1
shows git version 2.8.6 and throws the following error
Cloning into '/grpc/third_party/abseil-cpp'...
error: no such remote ref cc4bed2d74f7c8717e31f9579214ab52a9c9c610
If I switch to alpine:3.8 I get git version 2.18.1 and the build is successful. Is this a bug in the earlier version of git? Is there a workaround?
Notes:
- I'm specifying
--depth 1because I don't need the commit history. - I have some unrelated constraints which make it difficult to use a more recent version.

@QuỳnhNguyễn if that is the problem, why does it work correctly with the newer version of git? btw the commit id exists.

As you can see in "How to make shallow git submodules?", multiple evolution have been made since Git 2.8.
If available, try and use only one step:
git clone -b 'v1.17.1' --recurse-submodule --depth 1 https://github.com/grpc/grpc
