From: Luis R. Rodriguez <mcgrof@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> I used to use hpa's linux-2.6-allstable.git tree to make stable releases of compat-wireless. This allowed me to make updates to the stable releases whenever a 2.6.x.y extraversion got out -- but also to make updates whenever Linus updated his own tree so I can make RC releases based on the latest RC release. Greg has taken over of that tree and its now called linux-stable.git. What I am seeing though is that the linux-stable git tree now seems to not update as often to Linus' tree. This is fine as all I have to do is add Linus' tree as a remote and fetch those objects and then reset the tree to say, v3.2-rc6 and that'll get what Linus' tree looks like today. This patch just changes the path where we pick up stable releases from but also documents this change in case anyone that wants to make stable release must also add Linus' tree as a remote and fetch those objects.
