You can do it.  I would remove the official packages first.  When you 
build specify /usr as the installation prefix


1.


 2. I found there is no stable branch, just master and numbered.

master is the current branch that all changes are merged to.  There is 
no stable branch since darktable is not a rolling release.

releases are tagged so that they can be checked out and built.

 1. If I type
git clone --branch latest --recurse-submodules --depth 1
https://github.com/darktable-org/darktable.git
it will fail, however
git clone --branch master --recurse-submodules --depth 1
https://github.com/darktable-org/darktable.git
will work. No possibility to get something else than master ?

git checkout release-4.0.0
git submodule update

This checks out the versions of the submodules used to build release-4.0

 1. In the same kind of things, a little further one can find
git checkout tags/release-4.0.0
which seems to only work with numbering, even master is not
recognized ('tags/release-master' does not correspond to any
file known by git [translated from french]).
What does this deserve ?

git checkout master takes you back to master.  Just do a git submodule 
update after you change back.


Sorry for all those questions, but I am trying to understand how
things work for this project, as it seems the commuters differ
slightly from others.

Thanks,
