The directions you referenced in a previous email are the same reguardless
of changing between branches or going to older hashes... Sometimes you can
get away with it, but it will eventually cause issues...

If you are installing to /usr/local/freeswitch , you can easily tar zcvf
freeswitch.DATE.tgz freeswitch (from /usr/local/freeswitch) of course...
