**Note**: To execute a single command as the Akkoma system user, use `doas -u akkoma command`. You can also switch to a shell by using `doas -su akkoma`. If you don’t have and want `doas` on your system, you can use `su` as root user (UID 0) for a single command by using `su -l akkoma -s $SHELL -c 'command'` and `su -l akkoma -s $SHELL` for starting a shell.
-* Git clone the AkkomaBE repository and make the Akkoma user the owner of the directory:
+* Git clone the AkkomaBE repository from stable-branch and make the Akkoma user the owner of the directory:
```shell
doas mkdir -p /opt/akkoma
doas chown -R akkoma:akkoma /opt/akkoma
-doas -u akkoma git clone https://akkoma.dev/AkkomaGang/akkoma.git /opt/akkoma
+doas -u akkoma git clone https://akkoma.dev/AkkomaGang/akkoma.git -b stable /opt/akkoma
```
* Change to the new directory:
* This may take some time, because parts of akkoma get compiled first.
* After that it will ask you a few questions about your instance and generates a configuration file in `config/generated_config.exs`.
-* Check the configuration and if all looks right, rename it, so Akkoma will load it (`prod.secret.exs` for productive instance, `dev.secret.exs` for development instances):
+* Check the configuration and if all looks right, rename it, so Akkoma will load it (`prod.secret.exs` for productive instances):
```shell
doas -u akkoma mv config/{generated_config.exs,prod.secret.exs}
