git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next-2.6.git

Should get you started.

In this case please look at how I modified the bonding driver to do
what you are trying to do.  That is the conflict in net-next and
I think it was actually less code.

The other very useful command is: git log -u some/path/

Git has fine manual pages and git command --help works for the builtin
git commands.
