I'm following the instructions of the Build HOWTO section of the Coreboot Wiki (https://www.coreboot.org/Build_HOWTO) and I'm having some issues.
Following the quote from the wiki "It is worth checking the Supported Motherboards (https://coreboot.org/status/board-status.html) page to see if your mainboard is known to work with a particular version of coreboot. If your board is listed and you want to try a known-working version, click the "upstream tree" link to find the commit hash and then check it out in git:"
So I find the commit hash and run:
git checkout 87e36c442e33388493f259bfa14db460a4f02753
Which returns the output:
warning: unable to rmdir '3rdparty/intel-sec-tools': Directory not empty warning: unable to rmdir '3rdparty/qc_blobs': Directory not empty warning: unable to rmdir '3rdparty/stm': Directory not empty Updating files: 100% (8604/8604), done.

You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this state without impacting any branches by switching back to a branch.
If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may do so (now or later) by using -c with the switch command. Example:
git switch -c <new-branch-name>
Or undo this operation with:
git switch -
Turn off this advice by setting config variable advice.detachedHead to false
If I try to proceed with:
git submodule update --checkout
I receive the output:
