PPP source now in git

PPP source now in git

[Paul Mackerras]

I finally got sick of using CVS for the PPP source code, so I
converted the repository to a git repository instead.  Thus, if you
want to look at the latest development source code for PPP, you can
either use git clone like this:

git clone git://ozlabs.org/~paulus/ppp.git

and then browse with gitk, git log, etc., and keep it up to date by
doing a git pull every so often.

Or, if you don't want to install git, you can browse the history with
gitweb at

http://git.ozlabs.org/?p=ppp.git;a=summary

Like CVS, the GIT tree too does not contain the same files of the
official tarball releases.
Can you delete them from the repository head?

BTW, some files in include/linux/ have diverged from the kernel
versions, if they cannot be kept in sync maybe then they should be
removed as well.

This is the rsync filter I use to generate snapshots for the Debian
package:

.cvsignore

/freebsd-2.0/
/freebsd-2.2.8/
/freebsd-3.0/

/NeXT/

Sure, done.

These days it should be possible to use the distros' versions for the
things in include/linux and include/net, I would think.  We do have
some definitions in those files that would need to be moved elsewhere,
though.
