How do I push the definition of the linus remote repo?

You can't. Remotes are local to a repository. They cannot be
"pushed" nor will they be "cloned" or "fetched".

Dreamhost is way slow compared to kernel.org, so it is better to clone from kernel.org first and then pull from dreamhost. What is the right sequence of commands so that a new user will end up with a kernel they can use 'git pull' on to get updates from dreamhost? I'll add these to
the repo description page.

I'm trying this locally and I can't figure out the right sequence of
git command to redirect origin from kernel.org to dreamhost.

How about the following (untested sequence)

        mkdir linux-2.6
        cd linux-2.6
        git init
git remote add linus git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/ kernel/git/
torvalds/linux-2.6.git
        git remote add origin ssh://jonsmirl1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/~/
mpc5200b.git
        git fetch linus
        git fetch origin
        git checkout -b master origin/master

The general idea should be correct. You have a non-standard
setup, so avoid git-clone.

What should I do to standardize the setup so that 'clone/pull' will
work on it?

Pull should work after you checked out origin/master. Pull should
fetch from origin and merge to local master.

But I don't see a way how you could use clone for your setup.


I created a master branch. I gave up on fighting with
gitweb and no branch named master.

I don't understand your comment about gitweb.


I'd like to do this, but I can't figure out how.

git clone linus
move origin to digispeaker
git pull

There doesn't seem to be a simple way to redirect the origin.

I don't know a simple way.
