Problem with 'git submodule update'

I'm just trying to downloading all extensions, following this sequence:

git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/p/mediawiki/extensions.git
cd extensions
git submodule update --init --recursive

The problem is that some extensions asks for authentication. I've made account in https://gerrit.wikimedia.org but it is 'Unauthorized' and result is:

$ git submodule update --init --recursive
Cloning into 'Notifications'...
Username for 'https://gerrit.wikimedia.org': Spas.Z.Spasov
Password for 'https://Spas.Z.Spasov@gerrit.wikimedia.org':
remote: Unauthorized
fatal: Authentication failed for 'https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/p/mediawiki/extensions/Notifications.git/'
fatal: clone of 'https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/p/mediawiki/extensions/Notifications.git' into submodule path 'Notifications' failed

(I found that extension '2ColConflict' also make this trouble...)

Could someone help me get through this?

Same problem to me. Notifications asks username and password.

@Spas.Z.Spasov I did

cd extensions/
git submodule foreach 'git checkout -b REL1_28 origin/REL1_28 || :'
git submodule update --init --recursive

And now it works.
