You wrote..

$ git clone rsync://rsync.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git linux-2.6
$ cd linux-2.6
$ rsync -a --verbose --stats --progress \
  rsync://rsync.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git/ \
  .git/

Could be just..

$ git clone rsync://rsync.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git linux-2.6
$ cd linux-2.6
$ git pull

Likewise, in the next section, git pull doesn't need an argument
if pulling from the repo it cloned.
