Executive summary: I received some alarming errors while doing a git pull of the latest kernel from kernel.org, but it appears that all is well. Continue reading for the gory details.
I updated my git-pasky tools this morning, by doing "git pasky pull", "make", "make install".
Working from a repo converted yesterday using Linus'instructions and subsequently successfully updated once:

Maybe those errors are "harmless". Checking out the new repo:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] linux-2.6-origin]$ git export ../linux-2.6.12-rc3 [EMAIL PROTECTED] linux-2.6-origin]$ cd .. [EMAIL PROTECTED] GIT]$ diff -urN linux-2.6.11 linux-2.6.12-rc3 >gitdiff-2.6.12-rc3
So, now I have patch-2.6.12-rc3 from kernel.org and gitdiff-2.6.12-rc3 made above.

Despite the errors from the "git pull", the files look OK.
