    Description

      Checking out Qt from github.com with the following commands fails:

      git clone --branch=v6.8.2 https://github.com/qt/qt5.git
cd qt5
./init-repository

      The output is:

      + git submodule init src/assistant/qlitehtml
Submodule 'src/assistant/qlitehtml' (https://github.com/playground/qlitehtml.git) registered for path 'src/assistant/qlitehtml'
+ git clone --no-checkout --progress https://github.com/playground/qlitehtml.git src/assistant/qlitehtml
Cloning into 'src/assistant/qlitehtml'...
fatal: could not read Username for 'https://github.com': No such device or address

      The reason is that between v6.8.1 and v6.8.2, the submodule qttools/src/assistant/qlitehtml was converted from an absolute path to a relative path that only works when cloning from code.qt.io
