I'd actually suggest:

	$ edit .git/config

and create this section:

        [remote "ko"]
                url = master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/git/git.git/
                fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/ko/*
                push = heads/master
                push = heads/next
                push = +heads/pu
                push = heads/maint

(I used to say ko-master but these days I say ko/master).
