Hi!
Here's my current version of git HOWTO. I'd like your comments...
Kernel hacker's guide to git
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You can get cogito at http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/cogito/
. Compile it, and place it somewhere in $PATH. Then you can get kernel
by running
mkdir clean-cg; cd clean-cg
cg-init rsync://rsync.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git
... Do cg-update origin to pickup latest changes from Linus. You can
do cg-diff to see what changes you done in your local tree. cg-cancel
will kill any such changes, and cg-commit will make them permanent.
To get diff between your working tree and "next tree up", do cg-diff
-r origin: . If you want to get the same diff but separated
patch-by-patch, do cg-mkpatch origin: . If you want to pull changes
from the "up" tree to your working tree, do cg-pull origin followed by
cg-merge origin.
How to set up your trees so that you can cooperate with linus
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What I did:
Created clean-cg. Initialized straight from Linus (as above). Then I
created "nice" tree, good for Linus to pull from
mkdir /data/l/linux-good; cd /data/l/linux-good
cg-init /data/l/clean-cg
and then my working tree, based on linux-good
mkdir /data/l/linux-cg; cd /data/l/linux-cg
cg-init /data/l/linux-good
. I do my work in linux-cg. If someone sends me nice patch I should
pass up, I apply it to linux-good with nice message and do
cd /data/l/linux-cg; cg-pull origin; cg-merge origin
