To install a previous version, you can specify the version after the @ sign. Note that versions older than 1.4.0 can also target a specific version, at a slightly different location:
go install github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/cosmovisor/cmd/cosmovisor@v1.0.0
go install github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/cosmovisor/cmd/cosmovisor@v1.5.0

You can also build from source; cosmovisor is in the main `cosmos-sdk` repo on Github, so you can use Git tags to target a specific version. This example uses a tag, `v0.42.7` that refers to the Cosmos SDK, as Cosmovisor-specific tags did not exist before August 2021. The first of these was `cosmovisor/v0.1.0`, and the second is the current release, `cosmovisor/v1.0.0`.

You can also build from source; cosmovisor is in the main `cosmos-sdk` repo on Github, so you can use Git tags to target a specific version. This example uses a tag, `cosmovisor/v1.5.0`, the current more stable version as some bugs are reported on v1.7.0.

Note also that we set buffer size explicitly because of a [live bug in Cosmovisor](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/8590) before version `v1.0.0`. If you are using `v1.0.0`, you may omit that line.

In addition, the same issue can be fixed by reducing the log via env variable. If you are unsure, ask on Discord.
