gsdk-4.2.0⁠ tag is the release version of the OpenThread border router for OpenThread SDK 2.2.0.0 GA. While it has certain additional features, it is forked off the following GitHub state:

• ot-br-posix @ d9103922a⁠
• openthread @ 91fa1f455⁠

Starting with GSDK 4.2.0, we publish two different container tags per release.

gsdk-4.2.0     - OTBR container with support for UART interface (default)
gsdk-4.2.0_spi - OTBR container with support for SPI interface

After pulling the container, you can run it like so (example): (See AN1256⁠ for further detail, including examples for SPI support)
