I just did that. I have Linus's tree and tags, and Ralf's tree: git checkout mips git diff v2.6.14..HEAD the nice thing about git is that it was written to do exactly the sort of things we need it to do, like this. > For example, let's say that there's a bug introduced when merging > Linus tree with mips branch.

Linus wrote a HOWTO on that very subject: http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/howto/isolate-bugs-with-bisect.txt > 2 - The way branches are made is broken : you can not fetch separate > branches without doing some "grafts" things I'm no git expert, but can't you just git-pull rsync://ftp.linux-mips.org/git/linux.git remote:local That works for me.
