Hi
Can someone please tell me what the difference is between
1. git clone -b release/v4.3 --recursive https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf.git
and
2. git clone -b v4.3 --recursive https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf.git

The downloaded idf is different in each case. So which version is the official release of v4.3?

The sources of these commands:
1. https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... et-esp-idf
2. https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/releases/tag/v4.3

Thanks
Grant

The former is the branch the latter is the tag.
For production use you want the tag generally as the branch is a moving target.

Thanks for the reply, I appreciate your time
