Changing a dependency in pubspec.yaml has no effect, Flutter wants to use the old one, even cleared caches

It's a Flutter project, with some GIT repo dependencies. One of them has changed:

pubspec.yaml before:

magicmodule:
      url: https://github.com/wrongrepo/magicmodule
      path: magicmodule
      ref: b83b8de832749a30037487c12a33ff3297329830

pubspec.yaml after:

magicmodule:
      url: https://github.com/goodrepo/magicmodule
      path: magicmodule
      ref: 76f876fc9dc7678a8763ca876876af733b3b3c7

But somehow Flutter wants to access the old repo:

$ flutter pub get
Resolving dependencies... (3.4s)
Git error. Command: `git clone --mirror https://github.com/wrongrepo/magicmodule /Users/ern0/.pub-cache/_temp/dir6jK0GP`
stdout:
stderr: Cloning into bare repository '/Users/ern0/.pub-cache/_temp/dir6jK0GP'...
remote: Repository not found.
fatal: repository 'https://github.com/wrongrepo/magicmodule' not found

What I've tried:

I've grep-ped both the project and the cache directory for "wrongrepo", not found, but Flutter still want to use it.

My suspect is that Flutter is using not the pubspec.yaml from the filesystem, but from an older commit of the main repository, but maybe I'm wrong. Also, I've committed (and pushed) the change of pubspec.yaml in the main repo.

I am new to Flutter, it must be some trivial mistake.

It was my fault: the magicmodule repository's pubspec.yaml contained further references to the wrong GIT repository. (I did not expected for self-reference.)
