I think in the past Larry stated that people should not use the www.bkbits.net site for retrieving patches (understandable, it increases the bandwidth usage). But he could use the bk-commits list, only that I'm not sure all the patches can be cleanly applied in the order they are posted. BKCVS has a problem with the timestamps and cvsps cannot be used properly - in the same changeset, some files can have a timestamp different by exactly one hour, cvsps generating two patches (with other patches generated between). For example, the logical change 1.24006 has the modification time for arch/i386/kernel/process.c 22:45:49 but for the rest of the files it is 21:45:49. Could this get fixed? (I hope it is not intentional :-) ) Catalin - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
