I have adopted this same scheme for wireless as well:
For changes against Linus's current tree:
master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-2.6.git
For development meant to be merged in the next merge
window we have:
master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-next-2.6.git

I'm not able to clone neither wireless-2.6.git nor net-2.6.git through http

Perhaps git-update-server-info needs to be run there?

Please continue to use wireless-testing.

This is now wireless-current in linux-next.

It is a good question -- thanks for asking!
If you think that two versions of the fix are appropriate, then please
do send them. If it is simply because the code moved I'll probably
be able to figure it out, but if the code has actually changed it
may be worthwhile.
We are now trying to avoid rebasing "-next" patches as much as possible.
So the version for the current release will be merged to Linus and I or
Dave will have to figure-out how to resolve the merge conflicts when
current is pulled to -next. Providing a "-next' version of the patch
can help to make sure that those merge conflicts are handled correctly.

How would you want me to handle bug fixes to go both directions
wireless-testing and upstream?
Because of huge code movement we are now doing in iwlwifi they are
currently just not the same.
Shell I send two versions or you want to back port them not sure how
do you want to track this...somewhere in merging loop it will create a
conflict. Maybe this is maintainer trivia anyhow
I would like to make sure there are not glitches.
Thanks
Tomas

I got a similar message when trying to clone using http://. I was
able to clone using git:// without a problem.
FWIW I have the post-update hook enabled, and I didn't change my
normal practices for publishing trees on kernel.org. I'm not sure
what is happening. Anyone have an idea as to what is happening?
