Proposed Changes

In Upgrading NetBox, we include the following in 'checking out an old release':

sudo git checkout v2.11.11

However to go from ex: 3.7.1 to 3.7.8; the installed version won't include tags, likewise there isn't a section for upgrading to none latest.

Should the above title change to 'Checking out a specific release' and the commands be:

 sudo git fetch --tags
 sudo git checkout v3.7.8

The above permitting upgrading in the current track as well as older versions
