git - How to handle expired url in gitmodules

Question

I am encountering problems when working with git submodules.

In my case I'd like to check out some older commit, but the url given in .gitmodules has changed. Therefore git will exit with error.

Cloning into 'XXX'...
fatal: unable to access 'http://xxx: Could not resolve host: xxx

What is the most suitable workflow to conduct this?

Thanks, Daniel
