Hmm, 45 minutes of cloning and rebuild, but finally it compiled clean

I understand that the issue is resolved now.
Probably your old repo was missing the libraries for whatever reason
(like antivirus deleting them, etc), but build script thought that
dependencies are properly built, so didn't attempt to rebuild them.
I was searching for how Visual Studio managed to decide if the vcpkg
needed installing. I think I've found it in 384a61bc6a
("contrib/buildsystems: add a backend for modern Visual Studio
versions", 2019-07-29) where dscho says:
we initialize the `vcpkg` conditionally, in the `libgit` project's
`PreBuildEvent`. To allow for parallel building of the projects, we
therefore put `libgit` at the bottom of the project hierarchy.
What's not clear is if the conditional pre-build can have an if-else
option so that we can have an 'update' check if already installed.
Adding the vcpkg update to the vcpkg_install.bat didn't work :-(

PS. the https://github.com/CoatiSoftware/Sourcetrail visualiser is
looking nice.
