Download a specific tag with Git

I'm trying to figure out how I can download a particular tag of a Git repository - it's one version behind the current version.

I saw there was a tag for the previous version on the git web page, with object name of something long hex number.

But the version name is " Tagged release 1.1.5 " according the site.

I tried a command like this (with names changed):

git clone http://git.abc.net/git/abc.git my_abc

And I did get something - a directory, a bunch of subdirectories, etc.

If it's the whole repository, how do I get at the version I'm seeking? If not, how do I download that particular version?

$ git clone

will give you the whole repository.

After the clone, you can list the tags with $ git tag -l and then checkout a specific tag:

$ git checkout tags/<tag_name>

Even better, checkout and create a branch (otherwise you will be on a branch named after the revision number of tag):

$ git checkout tags/<tag_name> -b <branch_name>

---

git clone --branch my_abc http://git.abc.net/git/abc.git

Will clone the repo and leave you on the tag you are interested in.

Documentation for 1.8.5.2 of git clone states.

--branch can also take tags and detaches the HEAD at that commit in the resulting repository.

I'm not a git expert, but I think this should work:

git clone http://git.abc.net/git/abc.git
cd abc
git checkout my_abc 

OR

git clone http://git.abc.net/git/abc.git
cd abc
git checkout -b new_branch my_abc

The second variation establishes a new branch based on the tag, which lets you avoid a 'detached HEAD'. (git-checkout manual)

Every git repo contains the entire revision history, so cloning the repo gives you access to the latest commit, plus everything that came before, including the tag you're looking for.
