Title: Quick github bitcoin question
Post by: doof on August 23, 2014, 10:34:10 PM

Just want to clone the release build of 0.9.2.1. Do the developers branch for release, or label / tag?

Is the command just git clone -b 0.9.2 https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin

https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/tree/0.9.2

Each release version is tagged, so for example:

Code:

git clone https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin.git
cd bitcoin
git checkout tags/v0.9.2.1

git checkout tags/v0.9.2.1

You can also go to the tag and download the zip

I think downloading the zip from the tag will be splendid at least one is rest assured of an updated version.
