Ok - I typed some random combination of "git seek", "git cancel" and "git track pasky" and now I have a file named VERSION containing the string "0.7\n", and I did a make install, with apparently useful results (built and installed a bunch of stuff). Then I did the following, with immediate, but not apparently useful, results: $ rm -fr linux $ mkdir linux $ cd linux $ git init linus rsync://rsync.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git defaulting to local storage area link_stat linus/HEAD : No such file or directory rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23) at main.c(620) gitpull.sh: unable to get the head pointer of branch master gitinit.sh: pull failed Still stuck ... -- I won't rest till it's the best ...
