 If you prefer to compile from source or are contributing to the project, you can install `kuadrantctl` using `go install` or `make install`. This method requires Golang 1.21 or newer.
 
 ```bash
-go install github.com/kuadrant/kuadrantctl@latest
+VERSION=$(git rev-parse --short=7 HEAD) go install -ldflags='-X "github.com/kuadrant/kuadrantctl/version.Version=dev - '$VERSION'"' 'github.com/kuadrant/kuadrantctl'
 ```
 
 This command will compile `kuadrantctl` and install the binary executable in `$GOBIN` (defaulting to `$GOPATH/bin`).
