how to install specific version of magicmirror

[sdetweil]

@tanvir586

git clone magic mirror repo, like always
git checkout v2.19.0

all releases are marked with tags

@sdetweil is it automatic installation. Or I have to do it manually.

@tanvir586 manually

[tanvir586]

@sdetweil after I done
git clone https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror

Then git chackout 2.19.0 ?

Sorry I’m bit confused here

[sdetweil]

@tanvir586 yes,

git clone make a copy of the source repository on your machine

the checkout command will make a particular commit active

the label has to be exact

cd ~/MagicMirror
git checkout v2.19.0

now the MagicMirror working copy folder is the code at v2.19.0 level

@tanvir586 also see the options here

https://www.techiedelight.com/clone-specific-tag-with-git/

if u look at the MagicMirror repo on github

you will see the drop-down next to master

but also see the tags tab
if u select the tags tab, then u see all the tags, one for each release
