Many thanks!
It's a bit simpler than that. You don't need to specify `tags/` when referencing tags. git checkout v3.3.7 # for final 3.3 release (in detached HEAD mode) git checkout v3.3.7 -b v3.3.7 # to also create a local branch git checkout 3.3 -b 3.3 # for the final state of the 3.3 branch https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Basics-Tagging -- Ned Deily n...@python.org -- [] _______________________________________________ python-committers mailing list -- python-committers@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-committers-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-committers.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-committers@python.org/message/SJJ6JQNNK3ARPUWYF45POSTIR5OJH7TI/ Code of Conduct: https://www.python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
