Subject: Problem in Getting Mainline Kernel

Hi list,
I cloned it for nearly 30 hours due to the poor connection :( How I wish
the cloning process is resumable.
Finally I cloned the mainline kernel from
"git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git".
However, when I'm looking at the git directory, I got nothing but:
. .. arch .DS_Store .git .gitignore .mailmap
I'm confused. I thought it would be like this:
arch include mm security
block init modules.builtin sound
COPYING ipc modules.order System.map
CREDITS Kbuild Module.symvers tools
crypto Kconfig net usr
Documentation kernel README virt
drivers lib REPORTING-BUGS vmlinux
firmware MAINTAINERS samples vmlinux.o
fs Makefile scripts
Is my clone broken? I ran `git pull` and it said the clone is
up-to-date. And the size of .git directory is over 1 GB.
Now I'm using `tar.xz` from kernel.org and it works just fine. But I
still want to know what I should do with my git clone.
All the best!
Freeman Zhang
