Building Linuxcnc 2.8 from source was created by bally123

Hi Guys

I want to install linuxcnc 2.8.4 on debian 10 from source. This is so i can modify the xhc pendant drivers and update my working mill with the changes.

I believe if I clone using this command it will be cloning v2.9 (master)

Code:

git clone https://github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc.git linuxcnc-dev

Its probably simple, but How do i specify cloning the 2.8 branch ?

Thanks

While you can checkout a specific branch, normally, you just do what you have done and then type:

Code:

git checkout 2.8
