same problem as 

bjorn_at_frodo2:~/repo/boost (master)$ git submodule update
fatal: reference is not a tree: 57ec5d1534810090649b18c88e66a46f48cdcf1c
Unable to checkout '57ec5d1534810090649b18c88e66a46f48cdcf1c' in
submodule path 'libs/assign'

I think this is caused by some problem in the conversion scripts.  If
the superproject references a commit in libs/assign that has not been
pushed to github something like this will happen.

This particular problem has been around for a few days at least.  I
think Dave is investigating the cause. With command line git all other
submodules are cloned fine it seems.
