Cannot checkout msm-4.14

I think there is an issue with the repo manifest for release 15.1 for the wp77xx.
When trying to get swi-linux-src repo sync fails with:

The issue appeared to be related to repo.
If I executed the sync differently it worked ok.

mkdir swi-linux-src && cd swi-linux-src
repo init --repo-branch=repo-1 -u ssh://git@github.com/legatoproject/manifest -m mdm9x06/tags/SWI9X06Y_03.00.13.00/linux.xml -g default,-cache,proprietary ; repo sync
