I am using the bootcamp examples to teach my computer architecture class about gem5. I would like to pull in the latest version of gem5 from the github location. The command I am using is:

git clone --recursive https://github.com/gem5bootcamp/gem5-bootcamp-env.git

When I compile gem5, Instead of version 23, I am getting gem5 version 22.0.0.0. Is there a recommended way of getting the latest version?

Hi Nick,

You should be able to cd to the gem5 directory, set up a remote to the
new github location (git remote add upstream https://github.com/gem5/gem5)
then checkout stable (git checkout upstream/stable). (Note: commands off
the top of my head and may have mistakes.)

That said, be careful as some of the python/stdlib APIs will have changed.
So, some of the examples may need to be updated.

Cheers,
Jason

Hi Nick, You should be able to `cd` to the gem5 directory, set up a remote to the new github location (`git remote add upstream https://github.com/gem5/gem5`) then checkout stable (`git checkout upstream/stable`).
