This repositories uses many GIT submodules. This cause the common fork and clone not to work. Instead, clone from https://github.com/SWI-Prolog/swipl-devel.git and next associate your clone with your fork (replace me with your github user name).

git clone https://github.com/SWI-Prolog/swipl-devel.git
cd swipl-devel
git submodule update --init
git remote add myfork [email protected]:me/swipl-devel.git
