OK. So cloning /linuxtv.org/git/linux-2.6.git, and not
the /linuxtv.org/git/v4l-dvb.git, with git-menu is the proper way to set
up a tree on linuxtv.org, correct?.
(git push didn't work right if I cloned /linuxtv.org/git/v4l-dvb.git
with git-menu. I got an error message about'fast-forward' commits and
not losing data.)

OK. Thanks!
