Start with installing 'git'. http://git.or.cz/ Then clone Linus' tree: $ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git if you're company blocks the git port, then you can use HTTP instead: $ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git There are a number of different git repos out there with virtex support integrated, but I'm going to use the example of my tree... (I rebased my tree onto 2.6.22, so it's very up to date) $ git fetch git://git.secretlab.ca/git/linux-2.6.git virtex-dev:virtex-dev (Again, you can use http:// if the git port is blocked) Now you'll have a branch in your git tree called 'virtex-dev' that includes my patchset. You can checkout that branch with: $ git branch mybranch virtex-dev $ git checkout mybranch You can view the patchset with: $ gitk virtex-dev You can look at in individual patch with: $ git show (All git commits are identified with a SHA1 hash; you'll see them in gitk, or when you do a 'git log) Also, you can view the tree online at: http://git.secretlab.ca/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=linux-2.6.git;a=summary If you click on the 'commitdiff' link for a patch, followed by 'plain', you should get a downloadable version of the patch.
