You mean for generally submitting or testing patches? I'd clone mainline

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git

and then remote track linux-next (or any other branch a specific
maintainer would want you to test against, this depends on what your
patch is for).

Cheers
Julie
