Yeah, I run it on a powerful PC. I need to update the README file - but
if you send a patch - will be appreciated.

Yeah, this is in my TODO list to teach aiaiai to take defconfig files
which are not part of the tree. So you basically need to copy the
l2-mackerel_defconfig file to your tree and commit it, so that the
defconfig is part of the git tree you are testing against.

But I want to teach test-patchset to accept just stand-along defconfig
files.

The reason it is implemented the way it is implemented because it was
originally done for an internal project where we have a couple of
defconfigs which are part of the project tree.

You should also commit it, of course. Because the way aiaiai works it
first clones your tree and then work with the clone. This is done to
make sure your tree is preserved intact.
