I should use? you're asking general git questions here. if you want to build a specific release, then you use a tag. if you want to build something newer than the release, but part of that release series, then use the branch. a trivial grep locates all of these things: git tag -l | grep gdb.*7.12.1 git tag -l | grep binutils.*2.28 git branch -a | grep gdb.*7.12 git branch -a | grep binutils.*2.28 > and binutils release are different, what I should say to build > - binutils without gdb > (i.e. --disable-gdb --disable-libdecnumber --disable-readline --disable-sim) > - gdb without binutils > (?) > > The solution of this problem isn't clear for me, becouse I'm unsure that one installation > will not partially overwrite another. yes, if you build from git, you need to take care to disable the parts from the other project. or use a release tarball instead of messing with git tags because it'll be stripped down already. for binutils: --disable-{gdb,libdecnumber,sim} for gdb: --disable-{binutils,etc,gas,gold,gprof,ld} -mike
