The master branch is Linus' tree, and there's branches for each of the stable releases called linux-2.6.[12-20].y (I didn't add 2.6.11.y). http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6-stable.git;a=summary > each time that a new -stable is released.

You have to be careful with pull. It will always want to merge onto your current branch. thanks, -chris - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
