[Interest] Qt 6.5.4-LTS from source -> fatal: Unable to find current revision in submodule path 'qt5compat'

[Rainer Wiesenfarth]

Not sure how Qt handles this, but whenever I ran into similar issues with
git submodules, a

git submodule sync --recursive

on the top level solved it.

Background: The submodules' remote repository may have changed in
.gitmodules, but the submodule itself still references the outdated remote
repository.

Cheers, Rainer
