So I gave it a try and I got an error > like this: The primary version control system was moved from CVS to git in June of last year: https://sourceware.org/lvm2/ You can clone the repo with the following command: $ git clone git://git.fedorahosted.org/git/lvm2.git [...] Then checkout the v2_02_86 tag: $ git checkout v2_02_86 Note: checking out 'v2_02_86'. You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this state without impacting any branches by performing another checkout. If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may do so (now or later) by using -b with the checkout command again. Example: git checkout -b new_branch_name HEAD is now at 4c67e55... remove unnecessary lvconvert.h Following this your lvm2 directory will contain the sources as they were at the time that tag was created.
