Description

📚 Documentation

(Add a clear and concise description of what the documentation content issue is. A link to any relevant https://pytorch.org page is helpful if you have one.)

Could you please add these to descriptions?

  1. https://pytorch.org/get-started/previous-versions/#from-source
    I tried to follow these instruction here to install previous version, but I failed again and again.
    Then I found that git submodule update --recursive is essential.

  2. https://pytorch.org/get-started/previous-versions/
    I tried to use anaconda to install previous version as written here, but I don't think conda install pytorch=0.3.0 cuda92 -c pytorch is working.

I tried to install stable version of pytorch via source code, but I found if I follow these instructions, it installs nightly version. Could you kindly write somewhere about this..?

Research direction

Start with the two linked previous-versions pages and compare their source-install and Anaconda instructions with the reported behavior. Clarify the need for git submodule update --recursive, verify whether conda install pytorch=0.3.0 cuda92 -c pytorch works, and explain how to install a stable version rather than nightly; done when all three instructions are accurate and explicit.
