Ryan Richard 11eb18d348 ytt install docs suggest that you checkout the release tag
Previously, the ytt install docs suggested that you use ytt templates
from the HEAD of main with the container image from the latest public
release, which could result in a mismatch.

This guide shows you how to install the Pinniped Supervisor, which allows seamless login across one or many Kubernetes clusters.
You should have a supported Kubernetes cluster with working HTTPS ingress capabilities.
<!-- TODO: link to support matrix -->
## With default options
1. Install the latest version of the Supervisor into the `pinniped-supervisor` namespace with default options:
- `kubectl apply -f https://get.pinniped.dev/latest/install-pinniped-supervisor.yaml`
## With specific version and default options
1. Choose your preferred [release](https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/pinniped/releases) version number and use it to replace the version number in the URL below.
1. Install the Supervisor into the `pinniped-supervisor` namespace with default options:
- `kubectl apply -f https://get.pinniped.dev/v0.9.2/install-pinniped-supervisor.yaml`
*Replace v0.9.2 with your preferred version number.*
## With custom options
Pinniped uses [ytt](https://carvel.dev/ytt/) from [Carvel](https://carvel.dev/) as a templating system.
1. Install the `ytt` command-line tool using the instructions from the [Carvel documentation](https://carvel.dev/#whole-suite).
1. Clone the Pinniped GitHub repository and visit the `deploy/supervisor` directory:
- `git clone git@github.com:vmware-tanzu/pinniped.git`
- `cd pinniped/deploy/supervisor`
1. Decide which release version you would like to install. All release versions are [listed on GitHub](https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/pinniped/releases).
1. Checkout your preferred version tag, e.g. `v0.9.2`.
- `git checkout v0.9.2`
*Replace v0.9.2 with your preferred version number.*
1. Customize configuration parameters:
- Edit `values.yaml` with your custom values.
- Change the `image_tag` value to match your preferred version tag, e.g. `v0.9.2`. *Replace v0.9.2 with your preferred version number.*
- See the [default values](http://github.com/vmware-tanzu/pinniped/tree/main/deploy/supervisor/values.yaml) for documentation about individual configuration parameters.
1. Render templated YAML manifests:
- `ytt --file .`
1. Deploy the templated YAML manifests:
- *If you're using `kubectl`:*
`ytt --file . | kubectl apply -f -`
- *If you're using [`kapp` from Carvel](https://carvel.dev/kapp/):*
`ytt --file . | kapp deploy --yes --app pinniped-supervisor --diff-changes --file -`
## Next Steps
Now that you have installed the Supervisor, you will want to [configure the Supervisor]({{< ref "configure-supervisor" >}}).
