The primary version control system was moved from CVS to git in June of
last year:
https://sourceware.org/lvm2/
You can clone the repo with the following command:
$ git clone git://git.fedorahosted.org/git/lvm2.git
[...]
Then checkout the v2_02_86 tag:
$ git checkout v2_02_86
Note: checking out 'v2_02_86'.
You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make
experimental changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits
you make in this state without impacting any branches by performing
another checkout.
If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you
may do so (now or later) by using -b with the checkout command again.
Example:
git checkout -b new_branch_name
HEAD is now at 4c67e55... remove unnecessary lvconvert.h
Following this your lvm2 directory will contain the sources as they were
at the time that tag was created.
Regards,
Bryn.
