I am trying to get the VM to build on Windows 8, following the procedure outlined on�https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-vm

When doing a git clone, I do get the following:

$ git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-vm.git

warning: Clone succeeded, but checkout failed.

You can inspect what was checked out with 'git status'

and retry the checkout with 'git checkout -f HEAD'

Pretty weird error I'd say.

Anyone knowing what this is related to?
