Following the readme instructions I went ahead of this command :
# git clone --branch v0.8.22 git://github.com/joyent/node.git

Which fails :
warning: Remote branch v0.8.22 not found in upstream origin, using HEAD instead

A simple working command is :
# git clone --branch v0.8 git://github.com/joyent/node.git

Acheiving this installation :

#head node/ChangeLog 
2013.03.07, Version 0.8.22 (Stable)

So I suggest a new version of the README.

I also edited the suggestion minimal configuration to prevent the hours I passed digging in dozens of examples for this exigent config file.
