As far as I can see... (working with pasky's version of git....)

You should put this into .git/remotes

linus	rsync://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git

Then

RSYNC_FLAGS=-zavP git pull linus

should do the right thing.

[pasky, would it be possible to make some kind of progress indication
default for long pulls?]
