get_deps fails on fresh clone for some of the repos --> "fatal: ambiguous argument 'HEAD'"

Operating System

Linux

Board

Affects Local Development and the CI

Firmware

Happens with b5d4d0f but I think this has more to do with the dependency repos and how "HEAD" is handled.

What happened ?

I was preparing to do work on the nxp/mcx bsps to add more boards and noticed some of the dependencies could not be fetched on a fresh clone

I have a patch here:

#3100

That enables builds to work again, but there still may be need to be some additional logic.

How to reproduce ?

1.) clone tinyusb

2.) run get_deps.py lpc55 mcx

3.) Observe failure

This also occurs in the ci
