No, it's the 12.x-STABLE. But it's older than 12.2-RELEASE.

By the way, now 12.x-STABLE needs to bring the source with the following git command.
Is there an announcement about it anywhere?

git clone -b stable/12 "https://git.FreeBSD.org/src.git" /usr/src
git -C /usr/src/ fetch -- origin stable/12
git -C /usr/src/ merge --
git -C /usr/src/ reset --hard HEAD --

Regards.
