DragonFly 6.2 released

[Justin Sherrill]

What Dan said is correct, but here's some detail: You fetch the repository
files - the "origin".  You then create a local branch for 6.2, and connect
it to the remote version (the "origin") with the same name.  You then
checkout the branch files.  At this point, the 6.2 source files are on
disk.  You could probably get away without the git pull command but it
doesn't hurt.
