for example 2.6.22-git17. what is it ?
Nothing more than an automated daily snapshot of Linus' git tree. The naming is x.y.z-gitn, with x.y.z the tagged release (ie, 2.6.22, 2.6.23-rc1, ...) and "n" the n-th dialy snapshot.
where is it accessible ?
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/snapshots/patch-2.6.22-git17.gz
why would someone use this tree ?
To "sync up" with Linus if you don't use git -- they're daily as said. But if you use git, you don't need them for anything.
