You gotta give it a bit of gas while letting the clutch pedal out, just like starting from a stop.

Either that, or you can be slower with the clutch to give it more time for the revs to drop.
Exactly. I agree with #1, however on #2 if you are slower easing out the clutch then that is like riding the clutch ( pretty sure that is more friction on pressure plate...thus more wear +tear on clutch components.)
