Failed because of https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/diffusion/EWID/browse/master/.gitmodules

This needs to be fixed in the mediawiki/extensions/Widgets repository.

No. It was using some weird orphaned/forked remote

Swapped it to the proper one that wasn't abandoned

git submodule sync
git submodule update --init

It's something to "fix" locally

Oh, huh, okay. git submodule sync --recursive in mediawiki/extensions did it for me. Thanks.
