That should be OK. Sometimes ugly things can happen if James syncs with
Linus and you don't: when I ask git to generate the james->you diff, it
will generate a patch which reverts the Linus changes which are in James's
tree but which aren't in yours. I have an alternative pull-git-trees
script which tries to fix that but not very successfully.

But whatever, we'll see.

One slight problem though:

fatal: Unable to look up avgit01.qlogic.com (port 9418) (Name or service not known)

I think I might need to be akpm@qlogic.com to get at that?
