I would also like to know.
I installed IDF 5.01 but there are a lots of legacy lacking.
Need to install the proper one but I can't find any reference and initial setup is gone (New computer).

You could flash it to an ESP32 and see what the initialization chatter tells you. There's usually a line that mentions a version number and Git commit ID for the ESP-IDF version used there.

Once you figure out what IDF version you want to use, you can check the version
migration guides in the ESP-IDF documentation. Depending upon version, you might have to locate the legacy documentation. Or install an older ESP-IDF and work with that.
