Hi,
I have a somewhat older development tree at git://dev.medozas.de/linux (about 2.6.26-rc6), and without any tags. Now, adding in Linus's repository makes it gather all the new stuff, and all the missing tags:
$ git remote add linus git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6 $ git fetch linus remote: Counting objects: 85029, done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (14727/14727), done. remote: Total 74992 (delta 61774), reused 72751 (delta 59953) Receiving objects: 100% (74992/74992), 23.08 MiB | 1375 KiB/s, done.

What interests me here is why there are two "From" lines.
thanks, Jan
