 # Build shadPS4 for Windows
 
 This tutorial reads as if you have none of the prerequisites already installed. If you do, just ignore the steps regarding installation.
-If you are building to contribute to the project, please omit `--depth 1` from the git invocations.
+> [!WARNING]
+> If you are trying to compile older builds for testing, do not provide the `--depth 1` flag in `git clone`.
+> This flag omits the commit history from your clone, saving storage space while preventing you from testing older commits.
