Hi all,
Why doesn't the Linus tree have tags for the minor version updates of
the kernel, ie, 3.18.1, 3.18.2 etc? If i do:
$ git tag | grep 3\.18
The result is:
v3.18
v3.18-rc1
v3.18-rc2
v3.18-rc3
v3.18-rc4
v3.18-rc5
v3.18-rc6
v3.18-rc7

You need to add the stable tree if you want those tags too. I always
forget the invocation of most git commands, such as the command to add
remotes, but this is my config:
$ grep stable .git/config
[remote "linux-stable"]
url = git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/linux-stable/*
Hope this helps,
Paul Bolle
