it show me the error information

error: Server does not allow request for unadvertised object cc538bb6d0fcf0a6411537a5522d13cc9b86789d
Fetched in submodule path 'third_party/cregex', but it did not contain cc538bb6d0fcf0a6411537a5522d13cc9b86789d. Direct fetching of that commit failed.

it looks like that the git repository

https://github.com/ycm-core/regex.git

has not a commit id cc538bb6d0fcf0a6411537a5522d13cc9b86789d

The requested commit is the latest one. At worst, nuke the YouCompleteMe/third_party/ycmd/third_party/cregex and clone the repo there manually.

Just to provide another feedback, I'm also hitting the same problem w/ Vundle.

Some .gitmodules or .git/config is still targeting the old URL. Doing git submodule sync --recursive in YouCompleteMe directory should fix the URL.
