It is recommended that you update fwcutter before these patches are

simple 'svn update' in the fwcutter directory will suffice.
If you are using a version provided by your distro, you will need to
checkout the latest version with the command 'svn checkout
svn://svn.berlios.de/bcm43xx/trunk/fwcutter'.

Ew, Subversion. Hasn't everyone abandoned that yet?

I've set up a script to mirror it into git hourly:
	http://git.infradead.org/?p=b43-fwcutter.git
	git://git.infradead.org/b43-fwcutter.git


Although git is clearly superior, it doesn't make that much difference for small projects. Where Subversion still has a place, however, is where the project is code used on multiple OS's. At least I haven't seen a port of git to Windows. OS X wouldn't be that much trouble, I guess.
