Yep, I think this is the fourth message about this.
It would be nice to get it fixed....

I suppose as a temporary measure (without daily snapshots, but
one merged linus-patch of all 2.6.13++ patches), we could use
linus.patch from Andrew's -mm broken-out directory

<http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.13/2.6.13-mm1/broken-out/linus.patch>

http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/linus.patch.gz is updated
once or twice daily. It's Linus's latest tip-of-tree.

That's nice, but consider trying to find bugs when someone reports a
problem and there's no ggod way to tell exactly what patches are
present. At least with git patches, anyone can **easily** replicate the
source tree for debugging.

Is it really that hard to fix the process?
