# To confirm that Linkerd can actually be built properly:

git clone --branch edge-21.6.2 git@github.com:linkerd/linkerd2.git

cd linkerd2

nix-shell -p go

go generate ./pkg/charts/static

go generate ./jaeger/static

go generate ./multicluster/static

go generate ./viz/static

go build -o ./linkerd-cli -tags prod -ldflags "-s -w -X github.com/linkerd/linkerd2/pkg/version.Version=edge-21.6.2" ./cli

# By now, ./linkerd-cli is working just fine.

./linkerd-cli

./linkerd-cli version
