Perhaps something like this is better (now I actually tried it out):

]rm -rf linux-2.6/.git ]cp -r linux-2.6 peter-2.6 ...Initialize a repo in linux-2.6 with cg-init or similar and commit. ...Remove, add and change files in peter-2.6. ]mv linux-2.6/.git peter-2.6/.git ]cd peter-2.6/ ]git-status

How does this work for you?
