I had a (very brief) play. The submodules refer to local paths (../source/linux IIRC) rather than URLs on alioth, is that on purpose? Or is it to avoid cloning the full linux history for each submodule? (i.e. git doesn't realise they are the same remote repo and can share stuff, so it would clone the full history multiple times) Also genorig seems to be broken (wants the dfsg series). I suspect this now works completely differently? Manually merging into all derived featuresets when changing the base (==none) featureset sounds annoying, and liable to being forgotten, but I guess that is pretty hard to automate? Would it be possible to arrange for the base featureset to actually be in the main tree at the toplevel rather than as a submodule do you think? That at least would seem to be a far more natural arrangement. Ian.
