I am using git clone (for automation) to build node.js from source.
Unfortunately, the version on git is the unstable version. Is there a
repo that has the latest STABLE version of node.js that I can use git
clone on?

Here is the git command I am currently running, to get the latest
unstable build version:

git clone git://github.com/ry/node.git

If using git clone is not possible, how about a link that always has
the latest stable version? Something like:

http://nodejs.org/dist/node-stable.tar.gz

Fedor,

Can you provide the git command with tags, to get the latest stable
version? Thanks.

Justin,

One command will be not enough for that task, try:
git clone git://github.com/ry/node.git && cd node && git fetch --all && git checkout v0.2.5

Also you can try to dig some info about:
git archive ...

Fedor,

The entire point is the I don't know the latest stable version number
in the future, so tagging on v0.2.5 I can not automate. Is there a tag
for latest stable version?

Upgrading node without knowing the latest version and the changes
introduced in it is not a good idea anyway. API is still undergoing
changes and can break your codebase if you don't take the time to see
how it may break.

You can also use `nave usemain stable` to install the latest 0.2.x
release into your "main" root.
