Okay.

I think this was your mistake.  Don't check out the module "using
the vendor branch".  Just check out , period.

This should have been 1.2 .  1.1.1.2 would normally be for a second
import (if the software is from a third party who sends you an
update) or would never be used (if the software is yours).  The
problem is probably that you asked specifically for the vendor
branch when you checked out your copy.
