Timur,
You missed something. :-) You didn't read the Release
Notes for 1.5 that I forwarded.
I didn't get that email. However, I did read the release notes for 1.5 on the web, and it
didn't help. It's as if I'm on a different planet then everyone else who uses git, and so
no one understands what I'm trying to do.
I hate branches. I never use them. I create a whole new tree for each commit that I work
on. So I like to have a clone of all of the main external repositories on my hard drive.
Then I just clone these local repos into other trees on my hard drive.
In the past, my clone of paulus/powerpc.git contained everything. Every time I did a
git-pull, it would grab everything. Then I could do a local clone/checkout if I ever
wanted to work on a branch (like for-2.6.22). I didn't have to know the names of the
branches when I did git-clone.
Because of the changes to git-clone, this process got a whole lot more complicated. Now I
need to issue multiple commands for each branch. Ugh.

git branch -a
I think I figured it out, but I'm not sure it's working:
git-clone http://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulus/powerpc.git powerpc.git
cd powerpc.git
git-checkout origin/for-2.6.22
git-checkout -b for-2.6.22
When I do this, git-branch -l shows:
* for-2.6.22
master
So I think I'm okay.
