Some of the git repositories aren't necessarily the same; using the update-checkout script to select the right ones will be more successful. You can also use --reset-to-remote if you've made local changes that you want to throw away or want to ensure that it does the right thing from a clean update.

Thanks Alex, I wasn't aware of --scheme.

Unfortunately the same problem is present after using that though:

$ git clone https://github.com/apple/swift.git  # fine
$ ./swift/utils/update-checkout --clone  # fine
$ ./swift/utils/update-checkout --scheme swift-3.1-branch  # fine
$ ./swift/utils/build-script --preset=buildbot_linux
install_destdir=/home/ipartrid/swift-3.1
installable_package=/home/ipartrid/swift-3.1.tar.gz
