[chromium-dev] how can I build chrome old release tag 45.0.2454.85

[h***@gmail.com]

I have followed the guidance to build release tag 45.0.2454.85 in ubuntu
like this:

fetch --no-history chromium
cd src
git fetch origin tag 45.0.2454.85
git checkout -b local_45.0.2454.85
gclient sync --with_branch_heads --jobs 16
./build/install-build-deps.sh
gn gen out/Default/
autoninja -C out/Default chrome


but when build finished, I open the out/Default/chromeit's always the
newest version of chrome 72, not the the tag I want: 45.0.2454.85.

can some one help me?

I didn't think you can combine --no-history with building an old
version... did all commands work without errors?

Oh:
git checkout -b local_45.0.2454.85

You are giving it a branch name, but you are not specifying the tag
you want to branch from, so effectively this stays on HEAD.
