This pull request is in attempt to have changes made to allow a user to specify a specific version of pyenv to install.
It appears I am not the only one who wants to be able to install a specific version of pyenv. See: #120
38 could possibly be of the same request but I am uncertain if the individual was talking about this repo or any of the other adjacent repos used.
Fixes #120
The pyenv-doctor, pyenv-virtualenv, and pyenv-which-ext plugins also have tags in their repos, however none of those tags are current (e.g. they are a few years old). So I do not imagine anyone wanting to use a specific version of those plugins, hence they will remain to use the default branch (in this case, master).
The following option and option value were appended to git because after running git clone, git will "advised" the current user that using a tagged version will cause the repo to have a detached head.
git -c advice.detachedHead=0 ...
The advisement looks like this:

You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental
changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this
state without impacting any branches by switching back to a branch.
If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may
do so (now or later) by using -c with the switch command. Example:
git switch -c <new-branch-name>
Or undo this operation with:
git switch -
Turn off this advice by setting config variable advice.detachedHead to false
This is not the prettiest thing to look at. The appended option/option value will temporarily turn this advice off.
I did testing locally on my Linux machine. Maintainers, is there any further testing you wish me todo? Should the README.rst be updated?
