Dear Robert,

This is not a contradiction - our linux-2.6-denx repository is based
on the kernel.org tree and fully includes it.

The "kernel.org" branch in our "linux-2.6-denx" repository is
directly tracking the mainline kernel tree.

Just refer to the git commit ID, and you will find it happens to be
there.

Of course not. You do not use the web interface to actually work with
git.  And "v2.6.33" in mainline is something different than our
DENX-v2.6.33-stable branch (which BTW is a branch, i. e. not a
specific commit).

> Or something completely different?

If you want to get "v2.6.33", you check out this version: You would
initially run "git clone" to clone either the kernel.org mainline
repository, or, if you like, our "linux-2.6-denx" repository. Then
you would run the command

	git checkout v2.6.33

to get the exact state of sources these patches were created against.

See above: "git clone" followed by "git checkout" - as usual.

Best regards,
