Really simple question for you guys in the know...
I'm currently building snapshots on master branch for my RPi4, but would like to move to the 21.02 for stability.
Obviously I already have git cloned, so from reading the documentation on the wiki,I need to do the following...
scripts/feeds update -a
scripts/feeds install -a
Then do this step just the once,
git checkout v21.02.0-rc1
Then make menuconfig as normal.
Before running make I guess running make clean or as I've moved branch should I run make distclean?
From then on, I just build as normal, not needing to repeat the git checkout bit??
Does that sound right?
after the branch a distclean help you to have a good base, then you can update/install feeds, run menuconfig and at last compile the whole thing

No.
You need to update & install feeds AFTER changing the branch and checking out the release tag. Feeds are specific to a branch.

Oh right, the wiki has it wrong then, but that's fine I can do that no worries. Thank you.
