I'm missing something here (well, missing alot, but ...).

What are the exact steps, given that I have an empty chunk
of diskspace, to get Linux 2.6.12-rc3 to appear there, using
git.

Actually, I got part way.  Perhaps someone can complete
the following:

    mkdir git
    cd git
    curl -O ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/cogito/git-pasky-0.6.3.tar.bz2
    tar xvfj git-pasky-0.6.3.tar.bz2
    cd git-pasky-0.6.3
    ls -l /usr/local/include/openssl/sha.h	 # yup - I have openssl header
    make
    ./git init rsync://rsync.kernel.org/pub/scm/cogito/cogito.git
    make install
    git addremote pasky rsync://rsync.kernel.org/pub/scm/cogito/cogito.git
    git pull pasky
    git addremote linus rsync://rsync.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git
    git pull linus

And I have the SHA1 for Linus's 2.6.12-rc3:

    a2755a80f40e5794ddc20e00f781af9d6320fafb

And I've set DB_ENVIRONMENT=<this-git-directory>/.git/objects

Now I'd like to get 2.6.12-rc3 working kernel files to appear
in a separate directory.

Now what ... how do I do that?
