-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Rene and Andy, Thanks a lot. I figured it out while expermenting around with git:-). Now i since i have done this i have posted the results on my blog. These are the steps i followed. generate the tag locally if you cannot download one. In fact its not compulsion to downlaod tags to start with i guess.They are important if you want to keep up with latest linux tree though. I did :- $ git add . $ git commit $ git tag -f v2.6.xyz-mine $ git tag -l $ git branch devel-branch v2.6.xyz-mine $ git checkout devel-branch $ git branch and i am done. No need to donwload any tags or 300MB of src. Just generate tag locally and yay... Thanks Rene, Thanks Andy. Cheers - --pradeep [ http://psrautela.blogspot.com ] On 6/9/07, Rene Herman wrote:
