You may also use the source repo. You should be able to check out tagged revision v4.0.5 before you start the build:
'git checkout v4.0.5'.
 
In case you want  to follow a release branch, let us say 4.0, you can check this revision out with:
'git checkout DragonFly_RELEASE_4_0' and update your local copy as usual with
'git pull'.
 
The master branch really is the devoted to DragonFly development and that is you get every developer commit whereas the release branches only contain revisions of DragonFly releases.

Hi,
 
you need to check out the master branch from DragonFly source repo:
 
cd /usr; make src-create && make src-checkout
 
You should have checked out master branch after that. You might check that with:
 
cd /usr/src; git branch
 
which should write "* master" to the terminal.
 
To actually upgrade the system, you need to issue the following steps with optional steps in paranthesis:
 
1. cd /usr/src
2. (git pull) updates the sources to the latest devel version
3. make buildworld && make buildkernel
4. make installkernel && make installworld && make upgrade
5. reboot
 
In step 3, you may use "make -j[number of available CPU cores] ..." to speed up the build processes.
 
Regards
Matthias

Build from source and have git set to the "master" branch.  By
definition, it is always development.  It got changed to version 4.3
(from 4.1) this morning.
