#### NOTE: TensorFlow 0.9 compilation failing
276+
277+
As of June 10, 2016, there are issues with the build process for more recent commits in the TensorFlow repository. Most notably, the [0.9 release candidate 0](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/releases/tag/v0.9.0rc0) will not build. This is due to changes related to 16-bit floating point support. The most recent confirmed build was branch `r0.8`. If you'd like to build TensorFlow 0.8, run this command once inside of the TensorFlow directory:
278+
279+
```
280+
git checkout r0.8
281+
```
282+
283+
This notice will be removed once the problem is removed or a fix is found.

Once in the directory, we have to write a nifty one-liner that is incredibly important. The next line goes through all files and changes references of 64-bit program implementations (which we don't have access to) to 32-bit implementations. Neat!
