Can't update duplicated git dependency

[Diggsey]

Problem
I have a project which has a direct git dependency with branch "X", and an indirect git dependency on the same repo, but branch "Y".

I would like to update the direct dependency. (Although I don't care if both are updated, that's also fine)

Steps

I ran cargo update -p openapi-gen and got the following error:

error: There are multiple `openapi-gen` packages in your project, and the specification `openapi-gen` is ambiguous.
Please re-run this command with `-p <spec>` where `<spec>` is one of the following:
  ssh://git@github.com/<org>/openapi-gen.git#openapi-gen:0.1.0
  ssh://git@github.com/<org>/openapi-gen.git#openapi-gen:0.1.0

Now... clearly these two "specs" are identical so this is not going to help. As expected, running the proposed command does not work:

error: There are multiple `openapi-gen` packages in your project, and the specification `ssh://git@github.com/<org>/openapi-gen.git#openapi-gen:0.1.0` is ambiguous.
Please re-run this command with `-p <spec>` where `<spec>` is one of the following:
  ssh://git@github.com/<org>/openapi-gen.git#openapi-gen:0.1.0
  ssh://git@github.com/<org>/openapi-gen.git#openapi-gen:0.1.0

... and it suggests running the exact command I just ran 😆

Thanks for the report, I think this may be a duplicate of #8481?

Ah yes, closing.
