I removed it from daemon service list and the documentation for daemon, because that part is a new code. git tar-tree --remote=../linux-2.6/.git HEAD git tar-tree --remote=kernel.org:git next should still work; the former is "from a directory next door" and connect.c invokes local /bin/sh as the transport, and the latter is "ssh login to kernel.org and use ./git directory". I recall from earlier review of your code, "git archive" should work well over these two transports in addition to git:// protocol that talks with git-daemon.
