That is actually documented in the original release vote email. a) for a new copy do "git clone https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/logging-log4j2.git <https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/logging-log4j2.git> <https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/logging-log4j2.git <https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/logging-log4j2.git>>" and then "git checkout tags/log4j-2.9-rc1” b) for an existing working copy to “git pull” and then “git checkout tags/log4j-2.9-rc1”
