Yup. I actually did something more like this to get the test repository: git clone git://android.git.kernel.org/kernel/common.git git fetch git://kernel.org/pub/.../torvalds/linux-2.6.git master The android kernel repository I had handy on my local system was quite a bit away from Linus' so I wound up with two different but sizable packs. I thought android was closer to upstream, but its apparently not. I started from there because it was local and I thought it would be a quick way to get a test environment, but sadly it didn't even have the base 56d18e we were talking about. -- Shawn. -- 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
