Notes: Getting started: There are RPM packages available (I think they are for latest Fedora; in case of doubt get the latest SRPM and build yourself, sometimes the distros lag /way/ behind). There are also Debian packages there, dunno about those. Basic tasks: 'git pull' should be enough, no need to give the URL each time. It is useful to tell people how to get "nonofficial" branches (via URL + branches) too. Miscellaneous debris: 'git pull' has gotten tags each time for me? -- Dr. Horst H. von Brand User #22616 counter.li.org Departamento de Informatica Fono: +56 32 2654431 Universidad Tecnica Federico Santa Maria +56 32 2654239 Casilla 110-V, Valparaiso, Chile Fax: +56 32 2797513 - 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/
