What seems to be happening is that I create changes in my tree, rsync them out to kernel.org. Linus pulls them into his tree. I pull them back into my reference tree, and then try and update my working tree.

By that time, the object files in the reference tree appear to have a newer timestamp than the corresponding ones in my local tree, and cp -lua fails.

Which means cogito fails to work for me...  Help.
