Git - Remote branch 15.0.1.5.1-stable not found

This might be a duplicate from: http://forums.dds6qkxpwdeubwucdiaord2xgbbeyds25rbsgr73tbfpqpt4a6vjwsyd.onion/t/whonix-11-physical-isolation-build/1319 But better be safe than sorry.

I’m following the build documentation for physical isolation but got stuck on getting the source.
When I run git clone --depth=1 --branch 15.0.1.5.1-stable --jobs=4 --recurse-submodules --shallow-submodules https://gitlab.com/whonix/Whonix.git I get the following error:
Cloning into 'Whonix'...
warning: Could not find remote branch 15.0.1.5.1-stable to clone.
fatal: Remote branch 15.0.1.5.1-stable not found in upstream origin
So I checked the gitlab site, and sure enough, there’s no such branch (in fact it only shows master) https://gitlab.com/whonix/Whonix/-/branches
Thus I’m not sure how to proceed, I was tempted to try and clone the 15.0.1.5.1-developers-only tag, but I’m obviously no developer and I doubt it’ll be the same as the stable one.

I keep forgetting this. Use discretion. Meaning if that corresponding
version is blessed stable for a long time, just proceed.

15.0.1.5.1-developers-only vs 15.0.1.5.1-testers-only vs
15.0.1.5.1-stable would always be the very same thing except from a
different name by policy. Any thing else ought to get a higher version
number.
