I'm sorry that I didn't answer to git mailing list address. So here comes the email again.

Here is what I did:

$ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/li t linux-2.6 Initialize linux-2.6/.git Initialized empty Git repository in c:/Dokumente und Einstellungen/Ge Eigene Dateien/vbox/linux-2.6/.git/ remote: Counting objects: 980697, done.←[K remote: Compressing objects: 100% (161545/161545), done.←[K remote: Total 980697 (delta 818552), reused 978923 (delta 816954)←[K Receiving objects: 100% (980697/980697), 236.14 MiB | 90 KiB/s, done.

$ cd linux-2.6
