MongoDB master branch build version

If I build the MongoDB master branch from GitHub, which version of MongoDB will be installed?

If you know enough to build mongodb/mongo, you should be able to figure out the answer to your own question using Git!

Hi Mr. Jack,

I have already built MongoDB from the master branch, but I see that version 5 has been installed. I’m wondering why the latest version, like 7 or 8, wasn’t installed. Could you help me understand why this happened?

Github has the answer. Checkout the 7.0 branch instead of master and build that.
