[ Checkout linux-2.6 (aka linux-3.0) ] git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git ( NOTE: Users from EU zone: Use <git.us.kernel.org>... it's faster for checkouts. ) cd linux-2.6 [ gzip ] git archive --format=tar --prefix=linux-3.0-rc2/ v3.0-rc2 | gzip -9c > ../linux-3.0-rc2.tar.gz [ bzip2 ] git archive --format=tar --prefix=linux-3.0-rc2/ v3.0-rc2 | bzip2 -9c > ../linux-3.0-rc2.tar.bz2 [ xz ] git archive --format=tar --prefix=linux-3.0-rc2/ v3.0-rc2 | xz -9c > ../linux-3.0-rc2.tar.xz A good compromise between decompression-speed and file-size is: [ xz -2e ] git archive --format=tar --prefix=linux-3.0-rc2/ v3.0-rc2 | xz -2ec > ../linux-3.0-rc2.tar.xz-2e [ Filesizes ] $ du -h linux-3.0-rc2.tar.* 74M linux-3.0-rc2.tar.bz2 93M linux-3.0-rc2.tar.gz 61M linux-3.0-rc2.tar.xz 65M linux-3.0-rc2.tar.xz-2e Thanks to friends from #quassel.de (git archive) and #mirbsd (xz -2e) for the hints. Thanks to Linus for not providing tarballs... As I used to say... Still learning from git usecase to git usecase. - Sedat - -- 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/
