Argh, this is getting annoying.

git developers, do I need to do something to get git-update-server-info to run on kernel.org every time I do a push so that I don't have to do it by hand (and then forget for new releases, like I did above?)

I thought I remember a script somewhere telling me what to put into a trigger in the git documentation a long time ago.

Oh, wait, is it just:
	chmod +x my-git.git/hooks/post-update
as the core-tutorial.txt file shows?  Is that all that is needed?
thanks,
greg k-h

Great, I've now done that on all -stable trees that I can on kernel.org.

Andrew, please let me know if you have problems with this in the future, sorry for the mess.

thanks,
