You could create tags for them like this: git tag v2.6.22-git6 8f41958bdd577731f7411c9605cfaa9db6766809 git tag v2.6.22-git8 a5fcaa210626a79465321e344c91a6a7dc3881fa ... and afterwards you can use those revision names with bisect (or other git commands). I've got the commit IDs (i.e. those mysterious 40 hex digits above) from the first line of the changelogs; their URLs are: http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/snapshots/patch-2.6.22-git6.log http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/snapshots/patch-2.6.22-git8.log René - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
