You should reread the git-clone manpage for --shared. I haven't used it, but from what I'm reading it doesn't seem to make sense in conjunction with your cloning of git.kernel.org. Either way, it comes with a warning in the manpage: http://schacon.github.com/git/git-clone.html "NOTE: this is a possibly dangerous operation; do not use it unless you understand what it does..." v/r, neal
